SCHOOL LITIGATION UPDATE

Judge Cavanaugh, sitting in the Chancery Division, rendered a decision that is not favorable to the Village of Loch Arbour in the matter Village of Loch Arbour, et al v. Township of Ocean Board of Education, et al.

After consulting with the Village’s Special Council, Michael Schottland and Village Attorney Stephen Foley, Jr., the Trustees have agreed that it is in the best interests of our residents to take an appeal of the Judge’s decision with Mr. Foley acting as Lead Counsel. The Village has until March 15, 2010 to file its appeal.

Following up on our efforts throughout 2009, the Trustees have also reached out to members of the new Christie administration including Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno, and our Senator Sean Kean and Assembly representatives Angelini and Rible seeking either a legislative or administrative remedy to the burden placed upon Village residents.

We will keep you informed as the proceedings move forward.
