Summary
Council entered executive session for legal advice on 100 West Main Street, added and approved Resolution 122-2024 authorizing Borough Attorney Barry Goodman to finalize the form of a release as the borough pursues sale of the property.
The High Bridge Borough Council moved into executive session on March 14 for legal advice concerning 100 West Main Street and approved related agenda changes that authorized legal counsel to finalize a release tied to a sale.
Council first moved to enter executive session under Resolution 121-2024 to receive legal advice; the motion passed on a roll-call vote. During or after that executive-session authorization the council amended the agenda to add Resolution 122-2024, which granted Attorney Barry Goodman authority to finalize the form of a release related to the property. The council voted to add Resolution 122-2024 and then voted to approve it; all recorded roll-call votes were 'yes'.
Mayor Michele Lee said the borough intends to sell 100 West Main. The council’s votes provide attorney authorization to complete the release form; the meeting minutes note that action may be taken following executive session. Details of the release and any negotiation terms were discussed in executive session and were not disclosed in the public minutes from this meeting.
The council will reconvene publicly to take any formal actions that are permitted under law after the executive-session discussion.
