A lack of morality and decency…







The $7.5 million dollar project is really bad.  But something else made many residents sicker to their stomachs. 


I have been attending meetings for many years.  I have never been more ashamed or embarrassed for Lodi.  


Frank Licata, the father of the Board President and husband of the Deputy Mayor, said something really horrible to a woman in attendance about her child. His statement was made in the presence of many people including myself. All were in disbelief.  Many feel a sense of sadness today because of the mean-spiritedness and lack of basic decency.


Children should never be attacked.  Period.


The Deputy Mayor and Wilson School employee, Patricia Licata, uttered the word “a—hole” many times during the meeting.  Wilson school parents were in attendance.  What example is she setting?


Words matter.  Decency matters.
