Yesterday, I received yet another answer from Quatrone,
Leto, Nardino, Cardone, and Marra for the same ethics complaint from February involving
the unfair hiring of a Board Member/Police Chief’s girlfriend.
I am posting their answers because the public has the
right to see the level of dishonesty we are dealing with. Their answers change from month to month and
even day to day. Click on the link below
to see what I received yesterday:
The Superintendent gave unfair advantages to a Board
member’s girlfriend. All Board members were aware prior to the vote that they were hiring a Board member’s girlfriend. They can avoid the facts. They can commit perjury. They can claim that they are not friends with
Donald Scorzetti or affiliated with him politically.
They can hope strangers in Trenton fall for the
lies. Residents of Lodi know the
situation. Lodi knows they are lying.
The median household income in Lodi is $52,000. The High School Secretary position is a very
desirable position because of its pay, benefits, pension, etc. Quatrone states that there were only 6
resumes on file. That in itself doesn’t
tell you something is seriously wrong?
Something Quatrone isn’t telling you: there was a really large stack of resumes submitted
for the Account Clerk position. Many of
the resumes were outstanding. Applicants clearly stated that they were
seeking Secretarial positions and their resumes were not just limited
to Account Clerk. I asked Quatrone if
any of those resumes were considered for the High School position. Quatrone clearly stated that he did not consider
them. Quatrone talks about “internal”
and “external” resumes and his peculiar way of coming up with six. He manipulated the process and did not consider
exceptional candidates whose resumes should have been on file.
I owed it to the victims of Quatrone’s unfair hiring
practices to file this complaint.
Quatrone and his Board members played them for
fools. I owed it to the taxpayers of
Lodi to file this complaint. Public
funds should not be used to subsidize nepotism and political patronage.
Donald
Scorzetti’s public salary is over $200,000. Instead of giving back to the community, he
grabbed for more at his very first regular meeting. His first priority was to get his girlfriend on
the Board’s payroll.
