I am being told that Marc Schrieks intercepts Tedesco’s
emails and that I should not expect a response to the email that I submitted
days ago. I think the email is fair and
respectful.

Mr. Tedesco,
I am a resident/voter of Lodi and an
advocate for ethics reform at all levels of government.
In 2015, Marc Schrieks resigned as
the Mayor of Lodi to become one of your deputy chiefs of staff. At the
time, nj.com reported: “Schrieks resigned to comply with Tedesco's pledge
not to have any elected officials on his executive staff.”
Northjersey.com reported: “Schrieks said he was doing so to comply with
Tedesco’s new ethics policy in which he pledged to not have any elected
officials working on his executive staff.”
Marc Schrieks is currently running
for the Lodi Board of Education, an elected position on the November
ballot. As a candidate for County Executive, you will be on top of that
same ballot.
Can you explain the reasoning for
abandoning your pledge to not have any elected officials on your executive
staff?
Can you email me a written copy of
the ethics policy you set at the start of your term so I can better understand
it?
Thanks.
Ryan Curioni
