Hodge was among 16 people named in a federal corruption indictment in September 2007. The indictment accuses developer Brian Potashnik of bribing Hodge and other current and former officials in exchange for their support of his low-income housing developments.
Hodge faces charges of bribery, fraud and conspiracy. Prosecutors allege she received breaks on rent, utility bills and carpet while living in one of Potashnik's low-income complexes.
Potashnik and Hodge have denied wrongdoing.
The trial date for the other defendants is scheduled for Jan. 20.
