Planning Board to hear Appleview again on Tuesday

North Bergen Town Hall at 4233 Kennedy Blvd. will host a Planning Board meeting Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. The Appleview project is expected to be heard at the meeting. In December, a Hudson County Superior Court judge remanded the project back to the board, claiming that the board did not sufficiently determine whether safety considerations required by town law have been met.
