Why is Sheryl Luna Receiving "Retro Pay" When Nobody Can Tell You When She Works in Borough Hall and She is Not Part of Any Recently Approved Labor Agreements?

It appears that the employees on the October 30^th payroll receiving “RETRO" pay were part the new “White Collar Dept Heads and Supverisors Agreement” with the exception of Sheryl Luna and Sharon Salvacion:

Where NJEA Activists Can Find Friends When they Retire Out Of State (and Self-Medicate/Drink Away Their Misery)...

Lodi Has Done a Lot Worse with Its Unlawful Payouts than What Appears in the Pleasantville Report. Tony Luna, Vincent Caruso, Frank Quatrone, etc., Have Received Unlawful Payments. The Phil Murphy Administration Has Covered for Them. This Blog Has Been Reporting on Lodi's Illegal Payouts Since its Start in 2013.

Where Was Lodi's CFO and Treasurer When Tony Luna Was the Only One Signing Himself a $72,511.92 Retirement Payout When There Was A $15,000 Cap In Place From 2007 Law?

Wednesday, April 6, 2016

Tony Luna’s $72,511.92 retirement payout was never approved by Resolution.

The Mayor and Council never passed a Resolution approving Tony Luna's $72,511.92 payout for supposed unused sick and vacation days.

 

The only attendance sheets provided are from 2015.  There is no explanation or justification for where the 127 days came from. 

The only signature on any of the sheets is from Tony Luna himself.  He lists himself as his own supervisor.

And Tony Luna approves of his payout (click on link below):

https://www.scribd.com/doc/307263074/Luna-s-72-511-92-retirement-payout  

Tony Luna was never in the Borough Hall.  He didn't have a defined workday or work week.  How can he be responsible for keeping his own attendance records (and paying himself whatever he wants)?

Where Was Lodi's CFO and Treasurer When Vincent Caruso Far Exceeded the Sick Day Cap Over and Over Again?

It Never Ends. Vincent Caruso Receives Another $35,543.95 in Special (Illegal) Payouts.

Another special payout of $35,543.95 for Vincent Caruso after he is gone.

Where Was the Comptroller's Office and Other Useless State Agencies When I Was Fighting Frank Quatrone's Unlawful Payout by Myself?

Sunday, August 20, 2023

Current Payroll Records Continue to that Show that District Employees with More Years than Frank Quatrone Have all Been Capped at $15,000 for Unused Sick Days. They Have Been Capped at $15,000 Since 2013.

Frank Quatrone walked away with hundreds of thousands of dollars in sick pay when every other district employee had been capped at $15,000 since 2013.  Administrators, teachers, custodians, secretaries, etc.  that worked as many or more years than Frank Quatrone adhered to State law and district policies when Frank Quatrone did not. 

Frank Quatrone NEVER had a memorialized agreement with the Board of Education at the time the law changed which specified an amount accumulated to be retrieved at retirement.

Lodi Board Attorney Matthew Giacobbe advised NOT to pay Frank Quatrone and to force him to go to court.

Interim Business Administrator Robert Brown who was hand-picked and saddled on the district by Frank Quatrone advised NOT to pay Frank Quatrone.

Useless officials in the New Jersey Department of Education were calling me and emailing me information about problems with Quatrone’s payout.  They wanted me to fight the payout as a Board member when they were doing nothing.

In the end, Frank Quatrone received hundreds of thousands of dollars for sick days via the most corrupt process imaginable.

People like Nancy Cardone, Sharon Salvacion, and Donald Scorzetti with the worst conflicts of interest voted to pay Quatrone. Matthew Giacobbe’s firm drew up the secret settlement after advising NOT to pay and billing excessively in the process.

“Cleary Giacobbe” was paid $20,695.50 in this set of bills.  All BOE members that approved this payment should explain.

BOE President Nancy Cardone Had Her Son Paid $16,288.26 in October Which Would Translate to a $195,459.12 Annual Salary...

Very High Pay ($11,724.68) for Michael Cardone's Sister-in-Law in October...

 

October payroll does not show these types of payments for other school secretaries.

The Lodi BOE Paid Two Business Administrators in October. Michael Rinderknect Was Paid $17,926.66 and Thomas Lambe Was Paid 9455.

Mark DelMonaco Increased Municipal Taxes 16% to Fund Lodi Pride's Family Business (Nepotism and Corruption). That is What Tomorrow's Election is About. Scott Luna Should Tell You About the High Paying Job He is Getting for Himself at the Lodi Housing Authority as He Tells You Who to Vote For.

Donald Scorzetti is Only "Chief" Because Tony Luna Rigged the Process for Him. Scorzetti is Tony Luna's Frankenstein. Scorzetti Has Disgraced His Office and Our Town.

The video linked below of Scorzetti thanking Luna says it all:

https://www.facebook.com/Go.AGOSTA/

Scorzetti only has influence and so much of our money because he latches on to people like Tony Luna, Vincent Martin and Mark DelMonaco to get what he wants in the absence of any intelligence, hard work, merit, etc. That is why it is so important to throw Mark DelMonaco out of office this Tuesday.

How Can Gary Paparozzi Have a Pending Lawsuit Against Marcello Petruzella for $300,000 When He Never Disclosed that Partnership on Any Financial Disclosure Statement? How Can Gary Paparozzi Get Paid Twice by the Lodi Taxpayers and Not Disclose Two Separate Positions? Can Mark DelMonaco Explain?

Link to Gary Paparozzi’s 2025 Financial Disclosure Statement:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B4Yxafq29-KJi4WY_dA6LGeZJJLmNrAk/view?usp=sharing

Gary Paparozzi Never Disclosed His Partnership with Marcello Petruzella or any other partnerships with those going before the Boards:

Lodi By The Numbers: Crooked Gary Paparozzi Was in a Partnership With Marcello Petruzzella- the Same Person that He Was Getting Every Variance with Lodi Projects.

Gary Paparozzi Never Disclosed His Salaried Position in Lodi as “Senior Planning Aid”.  This is a completely different position and separate pay schedule from “Lodi Planner”.

Lodi By The Numbers: OPRA Response Confirms that Gary Pararozzi is Being Paid as a Full-Time Employee (“Senior Planning Aid”), While Simultaneously Being Paid by Lodi as “Borough Planner”. Nobody Can Provide any Records Showing any Accounting for His Work Schedule or What Time is Given to Each Position. Gary Paparozzi is Also Being Paid by Other Towns and Working in Other Towns During the Hours of the Lodi Zoning Office.

Like a 3^rd base coach, Gary Paparozzi is signaling at the Planning Board meetings and Zoning Board meetings on how members should vote. He is taking care of wealthy developers without disclosing his partnership agreements.  He is being paid twice by the Lodi taxpayers- one as “Planner” and one as “No Show Employee”.  He is getting involved in eminent domain again after he went full force against private property owners while he was mayor and making big money from his own townhouse projects in town.  This is what the Luna organization said about Paparozzi while Paparozzi was mayor:

Gary Paprozzi is funding Mark DelMonaco’s campaign. Mark DelMonaco and “Woobsie” should be forced to answer for this corrupt arrangement.

The "Besties", Mark DelMonaco and Donald Scorzetti, Partying with Your Tax Dollars in Their "Gangster Paradise". A True Halloween Horror.

Vincent Martin (Lodi's Deputy Mayor and Controversial Planning Board Member Responsible for Overdevelopment Monstrosities, Developer Funded Campaigns, Excessive Variances in Return for Payment, etc) Was a "50% Owner" and "Managing Member" of "AJ's" When it Was Repeatedly Busted for Prostitution and Illegal Drugs. Vinny Martin Settled Before the Hearing to Revoke His License and Bar Him from Holding a License for Two Years.

The State's Division of Alcohol Beverage Control filed to revoke Vinny Martin's license and bar him from holding a license for two years.

Vinny Martin and his partner settled before the hearing. 

How can the State list pages of crimes committed without charging the owner? 

How can the State not allow Vinny Martin to continue running his business but still allow him to run Lodi?

Why hasn't one news reporter confronted Matthew Platkin about this blatant abuse and political favoritism?

Mark DelMonaco Does Not Represent Lodi's Interests. His ELEC Report Shows Horrible Pay-to-Play Abuses (Schrieks/Paparozzi/Spiniello/DiMaria, etc.). It Also Shows that Mark DelMonaco Solicited and Took Money from the Builders that are Overdeveloping the Town...
