Honesty in Government - Not in Matawan

In an obvious betrayal the hold over Mayor, Mary Aufseeser made her appointments at the January 1 Reorganization Meeting. Going against what she led residents to believe at the last Borough Council meeting in Dec. 2007, namely that she would only appoint "essential services," Aufseeser made her appointments in a business as usual move, excluding the Planning & Zonng Board. Did she forget she hasn't won the January 15, 2008 Special Election? Talk about arrogant! This by a person who claims to love Matawan. If she doesn't win, then is she saying she only loves Matawan if she wins?

Here are the appointments the hold over Mayor appointed for Chairpersons of each Committee:
Redevelopment, Recreation, Water/Sewer
Committee - Robert Bunyon Chairperson
Finance, Education, Personnel Committee - Mike Cannon Chairperson
Public Safety, Police, Fire, First Aid Committee - Kevin Mendes Chairperson
Environmental, Shade Tree, Health, ADA
Committee - William Malley Chairperson
Streets/Roads, Bldgs, Grounds Property
Maintenance Construction Committee - Joseph Mullaney Chairperson
Historic Sites, Library, Technology, Cable TV,
Sanitation/Recycling Services, Railroad Parking
Committee - Linda Clifton Chairperson

You might find it interesting to note that Robert Bunyon, the lowest vote getter and an appointee was appointed Chairperson of the Redevelopment Committee. Linda Clifton, the highest vote getter and elected by the people of Matawan was appointed Chairperson of Historic Sites, Library, Technology, etc. Committee. Oh yeah, the hold over Mayor Aufseeser really listens to the people of Matawan! Yeah, Right! Yes that is sarcasm, deservedly so.

In a laughable appointment, hold over Mayor Aufseeser appointed Meghan Mullaney, the Police Matron , an as needed, paid position. Now you ask is that the same Meghan Mullaney who dropped Matawan like a "hot potato" and resigned as Councilwoman. You betcha! The current administration's reward system is contradictory, don't you think? So much for transparency in Matawan's government!

BUT I HAVE EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS! BUT I HAVE EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS!



News from Matawan, Main Street-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Councilman Buddy Mullaney was seen last night at 11:30pm ripping Buccellato/Buragina/Clifton signs out of the grass strip by the StarBucks strip mall and throwing them into a dumpster. Our sources say that Councilman Mullaney told one of Matawan's finest that the Police should take down the signs. Mullaney reiterated that HE had exclusive rights to place signs there. According to the story Mullaney claims the owner of the strip mall is hunting with Mullaney's brother. Apparently Matawan's finest refused to get in the middle of this political nonsense. Call me crazy, BUT my tax dollars are not spent to do Mullaney's dirty work. Matawan Police have a tough enough job without getting in the middle of one man's spite work.

Well, Mullaney did take the signs down....although Buccellato/Buragina/Clifton did not respond in kind......They chose the high road. The classy thing.

Mr. Mullaney, apparently in spite, called for challengers at 7:30am to be at the polls. WOW, you really showed them..... :-p

ONCE AGAIN DON'T FORGET TO VOTE TODAY!
