Hackensack Discussion / Re: City Council Election (Updated 5/8/05)

I did not say that his motivation was improper.  I simply said that his motivation was his family, not the community.  As you said, Hackensack only benefits indirectly.  I stand by my point in the previous post.  It is more significant when someone volunteers their time and effort when there is no direct benefit to their own family.  Many people volunteer when their own children are involved.  It is a much smaller number who contribute simply because they feel it is the right thing to do.

Clearly it is a benefit to have candidates who are involved in community activities but you also need to look at their reasons.  When someone is involved in an activity which does not directly benefit his own children then you are looking at someone who cares about the community.  Prior to starting his run for the city council, has Melfi ever been at any event which did not directly involve his own kids?  If he has, I must have missed it.  When his children are done playing, Hackensack Baseball will never see him again.

I see that Melfi is going to use his expertise as an accountant to watch how our tax dollars are spent.  When was the last time Hackensack Baseball (where he has been an officer for a number of years) opened their books for an outside audit?  From what I hear, even their members aren't allowed to see the books.
