Bridgeport council approves hiring of public works laborer Andrew Lutensi
Summary
The Bridgeport Borough Council authorized the hire of Andrew “AJ” Lutensi as a full‑time public works laborer, effective July 21, 2025, after a multi‑candidate search and unanimous council approval.
The Bridgeport Borough Council voted July 15 to authorize hiring Andrew Lutensi as a full‑time public works laborer, effective July 21, 2025. The decision came after the council moved and seconded the appointment during its regular meeting.
Council packet materials and comments at the meeting said staff conducted an extensive candidate search that produced six finalists. A staff member who participated in the hiring process said Lutensi—who prefers the nickname AJ—“had a great blend of experience, determination and a really good interview.” The staff member said the panel considered several qualified candidates but selected Lutensi for the position.
The council did not record a detailed roll‑call of votes in the minutes excerpt; the presiding officer announced the motion carried. Lutensi was present at the meeting when council approved the hire.
The council did not discuss salary, benefits, or job assignment specifics on the record at the meeting. No follow‑up tasks or conditions were specified during the motion to hire.
Less critical: council members offered brief welcoming remarks to Lutensi and noted opportunities to involve other qualified candidates in future hires.
