NB Atty Herb Klitzner retires after nearly 30 years with township

NORTH BERGEN – North Bergen Township Attorney Herb Klitzner is retiring after nearly 30 years of service to the township. Klitzner, who was hired as township attorney in 1985 when Mayor Nicholas Sacco first took office as a commissioner, will be succeeded by Thomas Kobin of Secaucus-based Chasan, Leyner and Lamparello. June 30 was Klitzner’s last day of duty as township attorney.
“Herb Klitzner’s total devotion to North Bergen and the years of service he gave to the township will never be forgotten,” said Mayor Sacco. “He has been one of the key figures in my administration and has been instrumental in the revitalization of North Bergen into one of the model urban communities in the state. He will be greatly missed but I believe we will be in excellent hands with Tom Kobin.”
An experienced attorney in governmental matters, Kobin is a partner at Chasan Leyner and previously served as the attorney for North Hudson Regional Fire and Rescue, as well as other government entities. He holds a Juris Doctorate degree from Seton Hall University and has been practicing law for nearly 20 years.
