How is the Township going to pay for any of the recommendations that come from the Downtown Area Vision Plan?

The Township Committee will review proposed concepts advanced through the vision plan, and prioritize those which would have a direct and beneficial impact to the area.  Once this is determined, and cost estimates are produced, a determination of how these efforts can be financed will be made.  The type of financing will largely be determined by the type of work and overall cost.  Financing options include short-term bond anticipation notes, long-term financing, and financing sought via commercial or mixed used development.  Grants may also be applicable to much of the proposed work.  For example, bike paths or green infrastructure could be financed through grants focused to advance these types of projects.
