Point Beach Mayor Says He's Not Going Anywhere!

by Jason Allentoff

An embattled mayor claims fraud and bad faith on the part of those seeking to oust him from office. Now Point Pleasant Beach's Vincent Barrella is fighting back.

41 duplicated signatures, 131 non-registered voter signatures and even the size of the paper the petition was printed on has Mayor Vincent Barrella seeking to stop the recall effort. Barrella says the organizers who want to see him gone have not done it in absolute good faith.

Barrella, who's been in office since 2007, says the petition never states why they want him out. He feels it's all political from a few people who are placing their own interests ahead of residents and taxpayers of the town. Barrella says he's not going anywhere. He's served as Mayor since being elected back in 2007.
