S 3789 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes FY2025 supplemental appropriation of $8,000,000 to Monmouth County Open Space and Farmland Preservation Trust Fund to assist in the purchase of the Stein property in Upper Freehold Township, New Jersey.

This bill allocates $8 million from the Property Tax Relief Fund to Monmouth County's Open Space and Farmland Preservation Trust Fund for the permanent preservation of the Stein property in Upper Freehold Township, New Jersey. The funds will help purchase this 125-acre farmland, which is a historic Revolutionary War site where 10,000 British soldiers camped. The appropriation supports preventing a proposed warehouse development that would split the property and potentially increase traffic, pollution, and water runoff concerns. The bill directs the funds specifically for the Stein property purchase to maintain open space and historic preservation.
