Mayor John Ducey has looked out-of-town to find the replacement for longtime Chief Financial Officer Scott Pezarras, who retired earlier this summer.

According to an agenda for a township council meeting set for Tuesday night, Ducey will seek a largely ceremonial “advice and consent” vote from the governing body on his pick: John Clifford, who most recently held the CFO title in Middle Township, Cape May County.

Clifford, a resident of Northfield, Atlantic County, had served in Middle Township since 2014. According to a biography provided by Middle Township, Clifford holds a degree in accounting from Rutgers University, and is a former Senior Support Specialist and Project Manager for Edmunds & Associates, a software development firm. He is a specialist in resolving municipal audit findings by refining policies and procedures and troubleshooting accounting software systems, the biography said.
