Redevelopment Area Bond Financing Redevelopment
funding can be obtained through the issuance of municipal bonds
under the Redevelopment Area Bond Financing Law.
The New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) issues
long-term, low-cost bonds through its Redevelopment Area Bond
Financing Program to redevelopers on behalf of municipalities
seeking to finance land acquisition, demolition and brownfield
remediation for redevelopment projects located within formally
designated Redevelopment Areas and part of an approved Redevelopment
Plan. The bonds are backed by Payments in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT)
negotiated between the redeveloper and municipality and pledged
by the municipality as security for the bonds.
