Action on redevelopment eyed for July 12 M&C HILLSDALE
Following a Borough Council closed meeting July 6 to discuss the four-story, 250-unit luxury apartment complex developerʼs agreement — including what community benefits will be provided in exchange for a density bonus — officials said they would likely discuss and possibly vote on an agreement at the Tuesday, July 12, 7 p.m. council meeting.
Borough Administrator David Troast told Pascack Press, “It is anticipated that a proposed agreement may be reached and placed on the July 12, 2022 council meeting for discussion, comments and potential action by the Borough Council in the form of a resolution. “Feel free to check the borough website for the upcoming July 12, 2022 meeting agenda,” Troast wrote on July 6.
Pascack Press reached out to the Redevelopment Negotiating Committee with questions prior to its July 6 closed session. The committee consists of Mayor John Ruocco, council president Janetta Trochimiuk, councilman Frank Pizzella and Troast. Troast told Pascack Press, “The public has been informed that there will be a public benefit provided for the density bonus in the form of on-site community
space and a cash contribution to the borough to be used for the benefit of residents. Those details are being negotiated which is the reason for the special meeting and closed session.”
Stay informed Public meetings of the mayor and council are generally held on the first and second Tuesday of each month in the Council Chambers, in Borough Hall.
