MENDHAM TWP. Town officials appointed a former deputy mayor to the town s sewer committee three years after he was forced to resign over a Facebook post that compared immigrants to rabid raccoons.
Township committee members voted 4-1 to appoint Rick Blood to the township s sewer advisory committee comprised of residents and town officials. Amalia Duarte, the township s first and only Democratic committee member, opposed the nomination and recommended having a fresh face on the committee.

I was looking for new people to get involved. It s good to have different perspectives and fresh faces.
