Dear Editor:
Three questions?
(1) Who authorized the renaming of Parsippany’s Community Relations Unit as James R. Barberio’s Community Relations Unit?
(2) Was that Police Chief Richard Pantina’s decision, and if so, was it made voluntarily or under duress?
(3) Or was the name change orchestrated by Mayor Barberio, who appears to be increasingly defensive and downright fearful of losing the upcoming primary for Mayor?
The world’s longest-reigning monarch, Louis XIV’s edict of L’etat c’est moi” may have worked for the French king, but that arrogant and self-aggrandizing behavior isn’t going to work in Parsippany.
