Evidence that Tony Luna Was Influencing the Lodi Mayor and Council on Behalf of Joseph Marino/JMP Holdings...

In March 2016, then Borough Manager Bruce Masopust provided the email response below, stating: "It is my understanding that Mr. Luna is working for Joseph Marino/JMP Holdings and other entities where Mr. Marino is principal (Marino & Companies). The Borough is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Marino's attorney dated March 17, stating that Mr. Luna will not represent their firm in any activities in Lodi but will do so in other communities". 


Over a year after that admission, Vincent Caruso was Lodi's Borough Manager, and he was meeting with Tony Luna on behalf of the "Redeveloper".  So much for Tony Luna not representing the firm for any activities in Lodi.


Over the years, JMP has been receiving huge tax reductions and payments from the Borough of Lodi.  
It's some coincidence that Tony Luna just happened to be a paid lobbyist for them.

How much has Tony Luna been paid by Joseph Marino & Companies over the years?  Is he still being paid by them?
