The Township Committee has made the redevelopment of abandoned,
underutilized and unclean properties a
priority in our community. Mayor Timothy Chell, Economic Committee
Liaison Sharon Lawrence and the entire Township Committee charged
the Mantua Township Economic Development Committee with
aggressively pursuing the revitalization of our community. The
MTEDC reached out to local, county, state and federal agencies to
identify, assess and receive over $251,400 in grant funds to aide in
this revitalization effort.
Agencies such as The United States
Department of Environmental Protection, NJ Department of
Environmental Protection, NJ Economic Development Authority and the
Gloucester County Economic Development Office, just to name a few.

Panel & NBA Stamp Redevelopment Team -
Working together to Redevelop Bownsfield Sites In Mantua Township
New Jersey
The MTEDC and its redevelopment team have utilized these grant
funds by identifying areas in need of redevelopment, assessed areas
of concern, partnered with various site owners to move forward in
their revitalization process and attracted redevelopers to numerous
properties within Mantua Township that were once thought to be
underutilized. We commend the Mantua Township Planning Board and
other local and county offices for working with us to achieve these
goals. The MTEDC believes strongly that
through partnership efforts anything can be accomplished!!
