Borough of Princeton, a Municipal Corporation, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Board of Chosen Freeholders of the County of…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the Mercer and Morris solid‑waste disposal agreements are subject to the Local Public Contracts Law because they are service contracts, not merely easements, and therefore must be rebid. The Court also found the plaintiffs’ actions were not time‑barred under the 45‑day rule, applying the interest‑of‑justice exception.
