the fly asks do people who appear before the planning board have to disclose potential conflicts of interest ?

the fly finds it interesting  the exchange between our deputy mayor Albert Pucciarelli and his friend David Rutherford  Now I’m to tell you a little story about the two. Rutherford does a lot of work for people in front of the Ridgewood planning board. He is now working on a senior housing project in Glen Rock and it just so happens that he needs a right a way from the Village to use the driveway that leads into the sewer plant.

During the last election its seems Mr Rutherford was a big supporter and ardent campaigner for our deputy mayor Albert Pucciarelli and spent many a Sunday handing out fliers . If you watch the rerun of last  weeks meeting you will see Mr  Rutherford presented his plan in front of council with his buddy Albert Pucciarelli leading the intro.

One only has to look at a former mayor and his failure to disclose a very close relationship with a local hospital and wonder  who else is not disclosing potential conflicts of interest?
