Hunterdon Freeholders Approve Commercial Corridors Land Analysis
|
|
Taking the county’s economic development strategy another step forward, Hunterdon County’s Board of Freeholders this week approved a Hunterdon County Corridors Parcels Study which will evaluate properties along state and county roadways so that more information is available for future land management decisions.
Freeholder Matt Holt, the Board’s Economic Development liaison, commented that the timing is perfect for this evaluation. “This study will focus on future opportunity,” stated Holt. “Given the disruption of the local economy by the pandemic and the most recent NJDEP decision limiting economic development near county waterways, it could not come at a more opportune time.”

Hunterdon Freeholders Approve Preserving 75 More Farmland Acres
At No Cost To County

Hunterdon County’s Freeholder Board, at the July 7 meeting, approved the preservation of two farms in the County in cooperation with the Hunterdon Land Trust, using state and federal preservation funds, that will add 75 more acres to the County’s Farmland Preservation inventory.
“Preserving farmland in the County remains a front burner issue for the Freeholder Board. And finding funding partners to take on 100% of the costs is a real bonus for the taxpayers. These preservation projects add to the total of preserved farmland in the County beyond 34,000 acres,” Freeholder Board Director Shaun C. Van Doren stated.
