Orangetown Board Holds Special Meeting
Most of the Orangetown Town Council special meeting will be in executive session, with the board interviewing real estate consulting firms for RPC.
The Orangetown Council called a special meeting for 7 p.m. Tuesday, but most of it will be held behind closed doors.
The board will convene in Executive Session to interview five firms that could provide real estate consulting services regarding the Rockland Psychiatric Center property. Various department heads may also participate.
"We had to do it in executive session," Orangetown Supervisor Andy Stewart said. "They are making presentation and we don't want them hearing each other."
