At the November 6th Mayor & Council meeting, the governing body approved by Resolution 221-14 the resignation of Municipal Land Use Board (MLUB) member Ralph Ortiz. The resolution comes almost six (6) months after Mayor Joseph Accardi formally accepted Mr. Ortiz’s resignation at a May 15th M&C meeting.
The reason for the resolution, according to Mayor Accardi, was that even though the resignation was accepted by the mayor’s office, a resolution needed to be presented and voted on to formally memorialize it.
The effective date of the resignation is as of January of 2014.
