In response to 3/28 blog: Readers say the Financial Advisory Committee is nothing more than a political action committee for the Council Majority.
While this blog may be correct in assuming that the finance board and the planning board are stacked with Aronsohn appointees that would approve his agenda,
there is a board that is not – the zoning board (quite possibly to Paul’s chagrin). I have been a member of this board since 2011 and can confidently state that the decisions made by it are non-partisan in nature
and most always benefit the Village and the applicant. The Chairman of this board, Joel Torielli, has done a wonderful job in ensuring the board deliberates in a fair an open manner.
It has been an absolute pleasure in working with all of them. If there is a board which operates in a manner that benefits the public it is this one. Lastly on a personal note, two of my campaign
team members, Wendy Dockray (planning board) and Sergio Alegre (zoning board and my campaign manager) work as part of the Village process and; are 2 of the most ethical people
I know.
