Power play on Jersey City City Council, as councilwoman seeks to oust council president

JERSEY CITY – A power play is afoot on the City Council, with a faction of the nine-member body seeking to oust Councilman-at-Large Peter Brennan as the council’s president and replace him with Councilwoman-at-Large Viola Richardson.

Brennan has been the council president, a largely ceremonial position, since after the 2009 city election. City code states that the council president term runs for four years, but Ward C Councilwoman Nidia Lopez wants that to change.

Lopez, a Richardson ally, is hoping the council can vote at its next regular meeting — on Jan. 11 — to make the council president position a two-year term, starting this year.

“I think change is good,” she said today, adding that the council leadership needs “the perspective of a woman.”

Richardson’s political stature increased late last year when she was the top vote-getter in a special election to fill two at-large vacancies on the council. Downtown Councilman Steve Fulop, a 2013 mayoral candidate, has already endorsed Lopez’s proposal.

“Clearly the Healy-Brennan leadership combination has resulted in huge tax increases year after year,” Fulop said in a statement today, referring to political rival Mayor Jerramiah Healy. “Change for council presidency will both help get a new direction on taxes while also having needed diversity in leadership”

Healy called the move to oust Brennan "premature ... unjustified and illegal."

"Council President Brennan was elected by the full electorate in Jersey City and received approximately 12,000 votes" in the 2009 city election, Healy said in a statement. "With all due respect, the newly elected Councilwoman Richardson was the victor in a special election receiving 4,100 votes.

Reached for comment, Brennan blasted Lopez, who in 2010 was deemed eligible to sit as the Ward C councilwoman despite having paid taxes on an Orlando, Fla. residence.

“Maybe she should go back to Florida,” Brennan said today. “That’s a change maybe people might want.”
