MAHWAH, NJ – The leader of the Ramapough Lenape Nation said Monday that it is “Tragic” that pockets of hate still exist in today’s society.
Perry said the nation will appeal the ruling, which includes the tribe having to pay $13,000 in fines.
McGready dismissed additional summonses brought against the nation by the town accusing them of moving soil and putting up a renewable energy system without the town’s permission, NorthJersey.com reported.
The ruling ends a year-long battle between the nation and town that began after nation members erected tepees on the land in protest of the proposed Pilgrim Pipeline in New Jersey and the Dakota Access Pipeline in North Dakota.
