The governing body is seeking to have the redeveloper of the property, designated as an area in need of redevelopment enter into an agreement under the law to be tax exempt. Rather, the redeveloper would pay an annual service charge to the borough quarterly, based on percentages of its income, from the units, a move estimated to mean millions of dollars to the borough over ten years.
Planned construction is for 292 units of which 15 per cent would be designated for affordable housing.
