Ridgewood NJ, If Mayor Aronsohn does succeed in getting both Gwenn Hauck and Albert Pucciarelli to sign on to his never-ending quest to oust Dr Gabbert, then who replaces him?
The mayor has a personal and political vendetta against Dr.Gabbert and his attacks on him both personally and professionally speak volumes, not of Dr. Gabbert, but of Paul Aronsohn.
Does the mayor have so little confidence in both Dr. Gabbert, as village manager and Stephen Sanzari, as CFO, that a Financial Oversight Board (chaired by none other than Nancy Johansen, wife of Paul Aronsohn AND Chris Christie fundraiser, John Johansen) is required? An ad hoc group of citizens coming together to discuss ideas is one thing, a quasi-official “committee” with appointed members is quite another.
If Mr. Sanzari, as CFO of the village, cannot adequately and effectively administer to the financial health of Ridgewood, then HE needs to be replaced (which I am NOT advocating for).
This is just another item on an ever-increasing list of “mayoral” over reach. What’s next?….we abolish our Faulkner Act form of government? When Clinton, Richardson, McGreevy and Menendez are your political role models, “disgraced” and “former” are words you should get used to. Everything that Americans detest about “government” has been laid at our door by a back-bencher with delusions of grandeur.
It is my firm belief that our Mayor will try to get rid of the Faulkner Act in favor of a strong mayor form of government. Mayor Paul Aronsohn personality (ego) and his politics dictate that he be the power broker for the Village of Ridgewood. This will give him unbridled power to make all the backdoor deals with whom every he wants with no check and balance’s .
