Former council president alleges Woodbridge mayor blocked him from job as form of retaliation; mayor denies accusations
In a Facebook Live video posted on his personal Facebook page, former Woodbridge Township Council President and current volunteer firefighter Ken Gardner explains why he filed formal misconduct charges against his former friend and current Woodbridge Mayor John McCormac.
“It appears that Mayor John McCormac may have committed official misconduct in office,” Gardner said in the video. “I was in line for a position at New Jersey Transit with a salary of approximately $140,000. According to former Governor’s Chief of Staff Peter Cammarano, McCormac blocked me from that position. I was later offered a position [in the purchasing department] at the Turnpike Authority for $58,000. McCormac acted in a manner to hurt me in the amount of $82,000 per year.”
