Freeholder Director Van Doren: Governor Must Distribute CARES Act Funds Now

“Hunterdon County’s Freeholders have made significant fiscally conservative decisions to hold up our end during the health and economic crisis. The tax rate was held steady for the second year in a row, a no-debt capital improvement plan was approved for the sixth year in a row, and the County continues to provide substantial funds for emergency and public health pandemic response. 

Now the Governor must hold up his end and distribute the federal funding designated to reimburse Counties, which has been available for over three months,”
