Justice Peter Moulton’s ruling will allow the court to hear arguments from the Committee to Save Mount Manresa, local leaders and other opponents. Also, an environmental review – expected to cover the sewer problems and suspected air pollution — needs to occur before the project begins. The developers plan to construct condominium town homes holding 250 residential units on the 15.4-acre site.

“This gives the Department of Buildings a chance to look at all the environmental issues,” Daniel Marotta, legal counsel to the Committee to Save Mount Manresa, told the Staten Island Advance. [Staten Island Advance] — Mark Maurer
