The NJ Development and Redevelopment Plan Concerns All of Us

WARNING to Fellow Taxpayers and Property Owners!
NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan* Is HAZARDOUS to Our Way of Life

What Happens to US under this Plan?

Page 7, Section II, of the Plan: “New Jersey will be the national leader in coordinated private and public investment which supports sustainable communities . . . ”

Decoded, this means unelected government bureaucrats and appointees coordinating with government-selected private businesses and NJ politicians will invest OUR tax dollars to fund projects they want, not projects we want, for our communities. Their projects will take our hard-earned money away from the suburban and rural communities, in which so many of us live, and give our money to sustainable communities in urban areas. They will use taxation, zoning laws and eminent domain to move us into sustainable communities.

Sustainable communities are urban centers, like Newark and Camden, where people live in high-rise apartments who walk or bicycle, where cars are highly discouraged, where we own no property, and where our living space is decided by the government, and smart meters determine how much energy we get.

IT IS DANGEROUS TO OUR WAY OF LIFE AND OUR CHILDREN’S FUTURES
