The 2014 Roselle Park Mayor & Council Re-Organization Meeting saw the swearing-in of two new councilmembers: Third Ward Councilman Ryan Kelly and Fourth Ward Councilman Mohammed ‘Gino’ Elmarassy. It also saw the departure of councilmembers Tanya Torres (3rd Ward) and Modesto Miranda (4th Ward).
In a noticeable change from customary practice, the mayor’s recommendation for Council President which, by law, is to be elected from council, was rejected in favor of having council unanimously elect Councilman-At-Large Carl Hokanson as the Council President.
Mayor Accardi appointed councilmembers Andrew Casais and Carl Hokanson to two chairmanships each, going against what the mayor stated he would do in 2011 by giving each senior councilmember a committee chair. When asked for a reason why he did not appoint councilmember Michael Yakubov (who has been speculated to be running for mayor this year) nor Charlene Storey as committee chairs, Mayor Accardi stated he wanted to appoint members of council he could trust.
