BAYONNE — In a closed session scheduled for after their Jan. 20 meeting, members of the Bayonne Local Redevelopment Authority will discuss their pending litigation with the U.S. Army. The BLRA and the Army have been in dispute for several years over several financial transactions conducted by the BLRA and whether these complied with the rules set by the Army allowing the City of Bayonne to take possession of the former Military Ocean Terminal. The BLRA has maintained it has fully complied with the terms of its 2001 agreement, but the Army has seen seeking additional information.
The Jan. 20 meeting will also be a reorganization meeting starting at 6 p.m. in the city council chambers on Avenue C at which time members will appoint a chairman and vice chairman, and approve other services. – Al Sullivan
