For the second time in three years, the Livingston Board of Education has started a search for a permanent district superintendent. Last spring, following the resignation of superintendent Dr. John B. Alfi eri, the district hired James O'Neill as an interim superintendent to run the district for the 2014-15 school year. He has told the Board he is unavailable to serve as interim for the 2015-16 school year. Alfieri, who had been hired as a permanent superintendent, had served only for the 2013-14 school year.

Over the years, the Tribune has been criticized for reporting information about homes that have been entered by burglars. We have always taken these criticisms to heart and discussed what we should do. We have always thought that this information was important to put in a community newspaper. The police have agreed, noting that they cannot be everywhere at once and neighbors are the best defense they have against break-ins. People who live in a neighborhood know what is normal for that area and what is out of the ordinary. If they know that the thieves are active in their section of town, they will, hopefully, keep an eye out and report anything that seems untoward.
