Another special privilege for Scott Luna: free use of town fields for his own private businesses…



This OPRA request was submitted last week:


A copy of any agreements between the Borough of Lodi and Scott Luna pertaining to the use of Lodi fields for his personal businesses (baseball camps/clinics).


This was the response I received today:




Scott Luna never had an agreement with the Borough.  No receipts of any payments were produced which means Scott Luna never paid Lodi for his use of town fields.


This is NOT OK.


If any other Lodi resident wished to use borough facilities for their own private tennis business, softball business, soccer business, etc. where they charged and collected a large amount of money from clients, they would be told to take a hike.  Scott Luna received a special privilege.  Apparently that privilege came from the same Recreation department where his son is now employed in a newly created position.


Ads like these have appeared in newspapers for years:



Lodi voters should have a real problem with certain families receiving all special privileges at the expense of everyone else.
