Pennacchio retirement signals big shift in Morris County GOP politics

Morris County Republicans, already bracing for change on the county and local level after a "Blue Wave" midterm election, are facing another seismic shift in the political landscape, this time from within their own party. State Sen. Joseph Pennacchio, the conservative Republican firebrand who has represented much of Morris County in District 26 since 2001, announced his retirement on Nov. 10, effective at the end of his current term in January 2028. His statement set off a flurry of campaign announcements from other Morris Republicans seeking his Senate seat and other higher offices. “I have entered the seventh decade of my life, and I have been doing this for a long time," Pennacchio told the Daily Record. “After much thought and reflection, I have come to the decision that my service in elected office should draw to an end with the completion of my current term.” Soon after Pennacchio made his announcement, longtime Republican District 26 Assemblyman Jay Webber made his own declaration that he would run for Pennacchio's Senate seat in the 2027 election, when all 40 Senate and 80 Assembly seats are on the ballot. Webber, who has served in the Assembly since 2008, ran for Congress in

Somerville library controversy takes another twist

SOMERVILLE - The Somerset County Library System is pushing back on a claim by Mayor Brian Gallagher that it engaged in a "false narrative" about the closing of the Somerville branch. In a statement, the Library System said it had "prioritized transparent and direct communication" throughout the process and had created a webpage to keep residents informed about the situation. The Library System also said that the decision to close the facility on West End Avenue next to Borough Hall on July 31 was "not driven solely by environmental health concerns" but also because it was "functionally inadequate for delivering services" since the closing of the lower level in August 2025. "The situation extends well beyond the presence or remediation of mold," according to the statement. "I'm not going to get into a verbal contest with them," Gallagher said, adding he was looking forward to "re-engaging" with Library System officials after Nov. 30. "We believe that building should be ready for reoccupation shortly," Gallagher said at the Nov. 2 Borough Council meeting, adding, "not that there was anything wrong with it to begin with." Earlier: Somerville library could reopen soon after months-long closure Peter Bromberg is retiring as executive director

Ex-Raritan councilman says mall developer owes him $414K | Exclusive

RARITAN BOROUGH – A former borough councilman and former chairman of the Somerset County Republican Party is suing the developer of the Raritan Mall, alleging he is owed $414,000 in consulting fees. Al Gaburo Jr., who served on the Borough Council from 1996 to 1999 and as county GOP chairman from 2010 to 2020, filed the lawsuit Nov. 5 in Somerset County Superior Court against Raritan Mall LLC, Raritan Urban Renewal LLC and Leonid "Lenny" Dimentman. The lawsuit alleges Gaburo and his now-dissolved company, Patriot Development & Consulting Group LLC, are owed the money for consulting services connected with the controversial redevelopment of the mall at Route 206 and Orlando Drive. According to the lawsuit, Gaburo was to receive "$1,500 per door" in four installments tied to borough approvals, the start of construction and issuance of the final certificate of occupancy. The borough has approved 276 apartments, including 42 affordable units . The project received preliminary Planning Board approval in March on a 6-2 vote, followed by formal approval in July. The affordable units will help the borough meet its goal of zoning for 99 affordable housing units by 2035. Developer disputes allegations in Raritan Mall lawsuit "We dispute the
