Judge hopes to rule this week on Giants, Jets suit to block NJ megamall

Has the American Dream Meadowlands developer breached its 2006 agreement with the Giants and Jets by gaining preliminary state approval last year for a new amusement park at the site — even though the football teams did not provide their written consent?

That was the key question on Monday in the Hackensack courtroom of Superior Court Judge Peter Doyne, who following the one-hour hearing informed the parties that he hoped to have his written ruling completed before the end of the week.

The six-year-old agreement — reached after the teams had squabbled with previous “Meadowlands Xanadu” developer Mills Corp. over the original development plan that dates back to 2003 — states that Triple Five would need a formal go-ahead from the teams for modifications to the entertainment and shopping project plan that would have an “adverse” impact on game-day traffic.  (Brennan, The Record)
