The last time we spoke to Peter Yacobellis he was feeling the social media heat. A lot has happened since then.
This conversation illuminates the journey of a council member at large during COVID-19 and Hurricane Ida. Peter is back to discuss why he left his position before his term was over, his cross-country road trip to a new home, and his new perspective on Montclair and his own life.
We talk about:
- Boundaries
- Bullies
- Lackawana Plaza Redevelopment
- Social Media
- Personal Connection
- Mental Health
- Physical Environment
- Expectations (External vs. Internal)
- Tips for Residents?
