An OPRA request was submitted for the retirement
payouts for all BOE employees from 2008 thru 2018. Records for the years 2010 thru 2018 were
provided in response to the request. Neither
Joseph Capizzi nor Emil Carafa are listed.

Any retirement payouts in the time period from when I
received my OPRA response (beginning of May 2018) to now should have appeared
on the last page of the bills for the June 27, 2018 agenda. Neither Joseph Capizzi nor Emil Carafa
appeared on the last page of the bills (page 96 in the link below).
When Joseph Capizzi retired, he was responsible for
issuing the payouts. After he retired,
Marc Capizzi became responsible for issuing the payouts.
Marc Capizzi did not give a straight answer at a meeting when questioned why his father’s name and retirement payout did not
appear anywhere.
On Wednesday, he did not provide an explanation why
Mayor Carafa’s name and payout have not appeared anywhere.
If they are going to claim that they never received any
compensation for any unused sick and vacation days or other type of payout
before or after their dates of retirement, then an auditor
should review all payouts and certify that conclusion.
The Open Public Records Act is the law and should
treated as such.
