Housing Authority Board to Hire New Lawyer in Special Meeting

The Hoboken Housing Authority is scheduled to hire a new attorney for the agency on February 7, in a special meeting, Chairman Jake Stuiver said on Tuesday. 

"The purpose of the meeting will be to discuss responses to the Request for Qualifications for general counsel to the Hoboken Housing Authority, whose bid deadline is Feb. 1," Stuiver wrote in a press release. "Action will likely be taken to make an appointment based on the responses."

The regularly scheduled meeting will take place the following week, on February 14. 

Also on the agenda will be a discussion and review of the status of Phase 1 of the Vision 20/20 redevelopment project. 

During the last Hoboken Housing Authority meeting, the board proposed to hire but that plan was postponed, because not all commissioners had been able to review the resolution before the meeting. 

The special meeting will be held at 221 Jackson St. at 7 p.m. on February 7.
