INCOMING TOWNSHIP COMMITTEE CHOOSES DELUCA FOR MAYOR AGAIN

Mayor Vic Deluca will be mayor for an eighth straight year in 2016 following an unofficial caucus vote of the Democratic members of the incoming Township Committee.

TC Members Deluca, Marlon Brownlee and India Larrier joined TC members-elect Nancy Adams and Greg Lembrich in the short meeting late Tuesday following the regular TC meeting.

With Democratic Central Committee Chair Ian Grodman presiding, the caucus voted unanimously to choose Deluca for mayor again, while also agreeing to make Adams deputy mayor.

Grodman said the members chose to conduct the usually-private caucus vote in the committee chambers so that it could be open to the public.

Deluca overwhelmingly won our recent online survey asking who should be mayor in the coming year. 

After Lembrich and Adams are sworn in during the TC reorganization meeting on Jan. 1, 2016, the new TC will formally appoint Deluca and Adams.
