But, wait a minute……
Friends in the right places.
If Vincent Caruso is a couch with Luna Baseball dBA/ Luna Enterprises LLC & Bat Cave LLC, is he being paid by these Luna owned businesses?Luna Baseball page |
The following Lodi Borough Ordinance has been on the books for sometime. Has Scott Luna
Paid the proper fees, held insurance bonds? Like the Ordinance requires. But NO RECORDS EXIST?
https://ecode360.com/LO0288 |
So the Luna Businesses continue to make money while using Lodi Boro Parks & school fields.
ALSO KEEP IN MIND THAT SCOTT & JEFF LUNA, CARUSO & MARTIN ALL MANAGED & COUCHED THE LUNA BASEBALL MARINERS SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

So...there is NO nepotism in Lodi, NJ
The Mayor agrees with hiring Family & Friends, after all...We're a small town, with large families?
Last year, the Borough of Lodi hired a "Police Clerk" to supplement MZZZZ Licata's maternity leave.
Mzzz Licata is Dina Pernice Licata, Her Mom, Joanne Ibach Pernice was also a Dispatcher & Records Clerk in the Lodi Police Department, under the then Police Chief Vincent Caruso. Dina then married into the LICATA family. (Cold Ethel ain't happy)
As of November 01, 2018, The Borough of Lodi hired one
"DONNA CARAFA BUONOCORE BORRA" There was no posting of this open position, weather it was Temporary or Part-time.
https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/crime/2016/05/24/mahwah-mayor-top-cop-accused-of-plot-to-discredit-a-rival/94721464/
A quote from this article is very interesting...
"In 2012, Sinclair lost a hotly contested election to Laforet, the incumbent, and subsequently became the target of retaliatory actions that included the discontinuation in 2013 of Sinclair's extra compensation of $6,000 a year for serving as the township's licensed sewer operator, and an attempt to thwart Sinclair's promotion to DPW director in 2014 by pushing for the selection of a former Lodi police chief who was a close friend of the mayor and Batelli, the suit said."
Mahwah Mayor William C. Laforet and Mawah Police Chief James N. Batelli
Donna was married to a NJ lawyer, Bouonocore. Their son is now a MAHWAH police Officer, where Caruso attended the swearing in of his nephew. Some of us remember Mahwah. Caruso was vying for the position of Director of DPW.(passing of Mr. Sinclair) Since he was good friends with the then Mayor Laforte (now recalled) and the Police Chief Batelli and of course William Borra, a Developer/Contractor of million dollar homes in the Mahwah & Allendale area, and who now lives in Florida..
Donna owns one of those million dollar homes in Mahwah, NJ....With taxes over $20,000.00 per year. DOES SHE NEED THE MONEY, OR ARE THE TAXPAYERS OF LODI GOING TO PAY FOR HER& HER HUSBANDS HEALTH BENEFITS ?????
LODI, NJ TAXPAYERS, ONCE AGAIN FOOT THE BILL FOR FAMILY & FRIENDS....
and we can thank Vincent Caruso....and we don't know how Donna Marie Carafa Bounocore Borra is related to the Mayor of Lodi EMIL CARAFA...
small world, ya think?

The dark side of Politics
A somewhat sad article appeared on NorthJersey.com today......

Turns out,
Donna is sister to Lodi Borough of Lodi Manager, VINCENT CARUSO !!!
Donna was married to a NJ lawyer, Bouonocore. Their son is now a MAHWAH police Officer, where Caruso attended the swearing in of his nephew. Some of us remember Mahwah. Caruso was vying for the position of Director of DPW.(passing of Mr. Sinclair) Since he was good friends with the then Mayor Laforte (now recalled) and the Police Chief Batelli and of course William Borra, a Developer/Contractor of million dollar homes in the Mahwah & Allendale area, and who now lives in Florida..

Hey, Lodi Coucilman Martin......
hoping no "Poles" where harmed during this incident !
The loss of one nights receipts can be very costly....you know, the house mother fees, tips, private back room space rentals, etc.

How many property owners
received the same treatment/favors from Reggo
https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/bergen/englewood-cliffs/2019/01/19/englewood-cliffs-nj-tax-assessor-fined-ethics-violation/2603783002/
from the article:
"George Reggo, who has served the borough since 2002, was fined $1,000 for lowering the assessed value of a property in which he held an interest and served as the broker for its sale. The Reiner Place property had been Reggo’s mother’s before she died in 2011. His real estate firm sold it in 2013.The Department of Community Affairs' Local Finance Board reviewed the case and determined there was a violation, saying Reggo “used or attempted to use his official position to secure unwarranted privileges or advantages” by lowering his appraisal on a property without going through the proper process."
"He has since left Bergenfield, according to Borough Administrator Corey Gallo.
According to state records, Reggo's total compensation for last year was $216,931, including $22,216 paid by Englewood Cliffs. He could not be reached for comment. "
His salaries as of Dec. 31, 2017:

CONGRATULATIONS
and GOOD LUCK to Vincent Quatrone !!!
https://dailyvoice.com/new-jersey/garfield/police-fire/new-bergen-sheriff-begins-filling-administrative-posts/746927/
from the article:
"Although it wasn't expected to be made official until next month, Cureton has added two other undersheriffs, bringing the number to the state-mandated limit of four:
Former Lodi Police Chief Vincent Quatrone;
Former Bergen County Sheriff's Lt. Alan Gailes, an investigator for the county Department of Consumer Affairs."
So Vin collects about $200,000.00 per year from pension and will now get paid over $120,000.00. What pension will he be in this time?
https://www.nj.com/bergen/2018/09/did_racist_bergen_county_sheriff_get_a_fat_paychec.html
"All of the undersheriffs were being paid salaries of $115,000 as administrators in the Sheriff's Department. They were appointed by Saudino and the "sheriffs use them as they see fit," William Schievella, a spokesman for the Sheriff's office said of the roles of the undersheriffs."
