Councilman Fernando Gonzalez

Councilman Bill Petrick

PERTH AMBOY – Councilman Fernando Gonzalez has made no bones about the lack of minorities on the City Municipal Boards. At the 2/11/15 Council Meeting he said these Boards do not make a fair representation of the composition of the residents of the City of Perth Amboy.

Proper procedure is not followed when making appointments, he said.

Councilman Bill Petrick retorted those statements by saying race or heritage is not questioned on the application. All members of the community can apply.
