Shoprite vs. City of Linden

From the New Jersey Law Journal:

"GM Plant Rezoning in Linden Knocked Out Because of Hazy Public Notices"

"Rockaway Shop-Rite Associates’ attorney on appeal, Ronald Gasiorowski of Gasiorowski & Holobinko in Red Bank, says, 'The land use law is relatively simple to follow, and if you adhere to the statutory requirements, you won’t have a problem.'"

What attorney prepared the insufficient ordinances on Linden's behalf?

Hazy? How about Lazy? Or how about incompetent?

What's toublesome is that this is not complicated land/use law. Notices/ordinances being deficient means some attorney made a big mistake on what should have been relatively routine matter. Who was it and what's his excuse? Will council members even inquire?

I also wonder if the plaintiff's counsel will be awarded attorney fees? Take it out of the salary of the attorney who made the mistake and fire him. We'd be better off with a kid out of law school.
