Anthony DeIntinis earns one-year term by a 5-3 vote.
Parsippany's Board of Education is again a board of nine. At a special meeting Thursday night to choose a candidate to fill its vacant seat, the board selected former police officer Anthony DeIntinis. The board seat was supposed to go to Joanne Mancuso, who came in third behind James Carifi and Frank Calabria in the Nov. 6 election to win a spot on the panel. In late December, she said personal issues forced her to opt out of being sworn in and taking the position. Though Mancuso was not a sworn member, new President Susy Golderer announced Jan. 3 that the board would follow the same procedures used to replace a sitting member who steps down mid-term. The board heard from three applicants: Calabria's running mate Alison C. Cogan (who came…

BOE attorney says Joanne Mancuso's decision not to take the seat she won in November puts the board in a most unusual situation.
The Parsippany Board of Education is supposed to be made up of nine members. But late last month, Joanne Mancuso, who won one of the three open slots in the Nov. 6 election, announced that she would not take the seat or be sworn in, leaving the board in unfamiliar waters. At its Thursday reorganization meeting, the body announced that it will hold a special meeting at the administration building Jan. 10 at 7 p.m. to do the work involved in filling the seat. The situation is an odd one for the district. When a sitting member vacates a seat, policy is clear: The remaining board members take resumes and applications for interested contenders and hold a special public meeting to interview the candidates, deliberate (which may be done in closed…

Anthony DeIntinis, 50, said he is running for a seat on the Parsippany Board of Education to shake up the status quo. The retired Passaic police officer and former state-certified school resource officer has lived in Parsippany for more than 13 years. He serves the local community in a number of capacities: as an advisory board member for St. Ann's Parish, as a coach and executive board member of the Par-Troy Wrestling club and as a member of the Parsippany High School and Troy Hills Elementary School PTAs.

Anthony DeInitinis says shared services could deal with the problem quickly and ensure residents' safety.
Parsippany Board of Education candidate Anthony DeIntinis has an idea regarding the path that leads from Parsippany High School's Jagged Rock to its football field. At last Thursday's school board meeting, resident Robert Crawford said the path was unsafe, due to the presence of rocks and potholes. Crawford complained that the potentially unsafe conditions make it difficult for people, especially elderly and disabled persons, to travel across it. And he said the conditions have been ignored by school administration for more than a year. At present, Superintendent of Schools LeRoy Seitz said the gate offering access to the path path would be locked and closed to the public from 6 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday and all day Sunday…

The Parsippany Board of Education campaign saw some action Friday as one of the candidates offered a stump speech at the Friday meeting of the Morristown Tea Party at the Veterans of Foreign Wars post on Route 10 in Whippany.

He pledged that he would represent taxpayers and their fiscal interests if elected. A standing-room-only crowd including Par-Troy residents representing a wide range of political views was in attendance, as were a host of Republican candidates and dignitaries.
