                          Mayor Anthony Luna says he refused to reappoint his uncle, Anthony DeSomma
                          to the Board of Adjustment last year because DeSomma had made an offensive
                          racial remark at a board meeting last September.

                          In a recent interview, DeSomma expressed regret about "an expression that slipped  out" during the meeting.
                          Nevertheless, he asserted that he was ousted because he had
                          opposed some of the development plans of the mayor's allies, and that the remark

OUTSIDERS NEED NOT APPLY

The following Borough of Lodi Civil Service positions are NOT open to the general public, they are only open to the people already working within the Borough.

and can be found here: (note: the Deputy Police Chief entry is interesting)

of course there are NO open positions posted for the Borough of Lodi

http://www.state.nj.us/csc/

Got to wonder when this one was posted, and why no other person was qualified, or took the exam? Why are Lodi Taxpayers paying for this?

 

From Lodi's February 2016 Bills

Yes, this is Lodi

Sometimes rumors are based on truth.

Last week some residents were upset about hearing of a Halfway house being located across the street from Columbus School. One resident was called a liar, another told they were crazy. The truth is, YES, there is a halfway house across from Columbus School.

The Borough of Lodi had to have knowledge of it's existence, but they can not tell you that. It would open the Borough up to litigation pertaining to Housing Discrimination. They can't and would not do that.

The house is privately owned.

Does it conform to Housing & Fire Codes? We don't know.

The residents who live there are part of a drug rehab program called Oxford Houses of New Jersey.

oxfordhouse.org

ACCORDING TO THE ABOVE INFO. THE RESIDENTS ARE ALL WOMEN, AND THE HOUSE CAN HAVE 3 TO 6 WOMEN AT ONE TIME.

THE AGE GROUP IS NOT KNOWN, OR IF THE HOME OWNER IS CERTIFIED OR QUALIFIED IN ASSISTING FORMER DRUG ADDICTS? OR IS THERE A QUALIFIED PERSON ON THE PREMISE 24/7?

IS THIS RESIDENCE RECEIVING FEDERAL, STATE, COUNTY, BOROUGH(MAC) FUNDING?

HOW MANY OF THESE HOMES EXIST IN LODI? SHOULD RESIDENTS BE MADE AWARE OF THEM?
