Councilman Retires, Resigns Seat In Brick

BRICK, NJ — Brick Township Councilman Arthur Halloran has resigned from his seat on the council with just over a year left in his council term.

Halloran resigned to fully retire, Brick council members said Tuesday night.

Halloran's resignation was effective Sept. 30, council president Vincent Minichino said. He was first elected to the council in 2015, and was re-elected in 2019 to a second four-year term.

The council is set to appoint Derrick Ambrosino to fill the final year of Halloran's term that ends Dec. 31, 2023. Ambrosino, a lifelong Brick Township resident, ran for election in 2021 to fill the seat vacated by Democrat Paul Mummolo but finished out of the running.

Halloran, whose wife Marijane died in September 2020, was praised for the business knowledge he brought to the council during his term.
