BERGEN COUNTY — A judge says a former city employee who admitted stealing more than $50,000 from a New Jersey youth program can continue paying $10 a month in restitution.

Antoinette Galluzzo's actions forced Englewood to cancel a summer camp, a scholarship and other youth programs last year.

Bergen County prosecutors argued Galluzzo cashed in her pension and should have made a lump sum payment.

Galluzzo was special secretary to the fire chief before she resigned after pleading guilty to theft in December.

The Saddle Brook resident is now unemployed.

The Record of Woodland Park reports Judge Eugene Austin upheld the restitution. Galluzzo must to pay $10 a month during her three years of probation. The city would have to seek the remaining $51,241.62 through a civil judgment and wage garnishment.
