Moorestown Council Committees and Appointments for 2016

Moorestown, NJ -- Moorestown Council finalized its professional appointments and committees for 2016 during its reorganization meeting Wednesday night at town hall.

A majority of the actions taken were unanimous, but new councilwoman Lisa Petriello decided to abstain on a few appointments that council decided on prior to her appointment to council.

“There’s a certain level of comfort you have with their rate and service, and I don’t have the appropriate experience to make a qualified judgement,” Petriello said. “It would be like approving minutes for a meeting you weren’t at.”

Petriello abstained on the following otherwise unanimous appointments:

• Anthony Drollas as township/labor/tax/utility attorney
• Daniel Gee as township prosecutor
• George Morris as alternate prosecutor
• Christopher Baxter as public defender
• James Fattorini as alternate public defender
• Michael Holt as township auditor
• McManimon, Scotland and Baumann as township bond counsel
• Alaimo Group as township engineer
• Environmental Resolutions Inc. as alternate engineer
• Alaimo Group as township utilities engineer
• Clarke Caton Hintz as affordable housing planning consultant
• Robert A. Baxter as conflict attorney
• Tim Prime as conflict attorney
• Taylor Design Group as township landscape architect/park design consultant

The following appointments were unanimous:

• Charles A. McCullough as part-time tax assessor
• Acacia Financial Group as township financial advisor
• Scott Carew to the Professional Municipal Management Joint Insurance Fund
