 BOROUGH OF NORTH ARLINGTON 

 Was The NJMC Duped? Or just Co-Opted?

NORTH ARLINGTON - North Arlington Mayor Peter Massa today said EnCap's decision to back out of a controversial bonding scheme is vindication for the Councilmembers and North Arlington residents who oppose the embattled high-density housing project.

EnCap has insisted for months the current financing as presented was financially viable. They are now forced to go back to the drawing board with a new application that protects homeowners in North Arlington, Lyndhurst and Rutherford from financial risk. This application may not be ready for months.

--70% oppose EnCap, 58% say give back the money.
