A Recent 15.64% Municipal Tax Increase Did Not Stop the Lodi Mayor and Council from Giving Marc Schrieks a New Contract with 5% Annual Raises and an SUV for Personal Use (Violation of Municipal Insurance Coverage) …


Link to Marc Schrieks new contract that was approved on December 16, 2025:



Mark DelMonaco seconded the motion to award the contract, voting with multiple conflicts of interest.  DelMonaco’s step-son works under Mark Schrieks in Borough Hall.  Marc Schrieks was DelMonaco’s fundraiser during the recent campaign in which he solicited money for DelMonaco from those doing business with the town.  Marc Schrieks personally made campaign contributions to Mark DelMonaco.  So did his father.

Marc Schrieks and Sheryl Luna screwed up the municipal budget so bad, the Lodi mayor and council increased taxes 15.64% months after they introduced a completely different budget.  They were all off by millions.  It is disgraceful that both Marc Schrieks and Sheryl Luna received big raises for complete failure.  They are being rewarded for nepotism and political activity.  Lodi taxpayers should not tolerate it.
