HOBOKEN — Former Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano, who resigned this summer after an arrest for allegedly taking $25,000 in bribes from a government informant posing as a developer, will get to keep the pay for 12 vacation days he didn’t get to use because he left office suddenly.
That was a year’s worth, and he’d only been in office three weeks, but city rules permitted him to keep the money.
The Associated Press says: “Acting Mayor Dawn Zimmer, who had previously called on Cammarano to voluntarily return the pay, says the city is overhauling its vacation and sick day compensation policy in response to the situation, but determined it would cost more than the $4,200 Cammarano was paid for unused vacation to pursue the matter legally.
