What New Jersey Residents Need To Know About The Christie Administration’s Proposed First Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery Action Plan (CDBG)
“This
plan puts into motion the specific actions we’ve been designing to
get relief out as quickly as possible to our Sandy-impacted
homeowners and businesses – to reconstruct, rehabilitate and elevate
homes, and to get over hurdles for our small businesses to get up
and running again. These programs have been carefully, but quickly
designed to fill the unmet needs faced by our residents to rebuild
in a safer, more enduring way, to strengthen our impacted local
economies going into this summer, and to help preserve the unique
character of our shore communities as we’ve known them. With this
first round of funding, we will also begin an aggressive marketing
effort to let people both in the region and across the country know
that New Jersey is rebounding and that the Jersey Shore will be open
for business this summer.”
The Christie Administration today unveiled its
proposed Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery Action
Plan, which outlines how the State plans to utilize $1,829,520,000
in federal funding. This is the first phase of Community Development
Block Grant funds provided to New Jersey by the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development. Additional CDBG recovery funds are
expected in the coming months. With this first phase of funding, the
Christie Administration is focusing primarily on helping homeowners,
renters, businesses and communities impacted by Superstorm Sandy.
-
The proposed Action Plan incorporates input from
Sandy-impacted communities and stakeholder groups whose
engagement will continue throughout the State’s recovery,
rebuilding and restoration process.
- CDBG Disaster Recovery funds are intended to
address unmet needs not satisfied by private insurance, the
Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Small Business
Administration, or other sources.
- The Christie Administration will dedicate over
50% of funding for low-to-moderate-income households, in
accordance with HUD guidelines.
- Additionally, per HUD guidelines, 80 percent of
the funds will be dedicated to the nine most heavily impacted
counties in the state: Atlantic, Bergen, Cape May, Essex,
Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean and Union.
- If approved by HUD, the Christie Administration
expects that more than 20,000 homeowners, more than 5,000
renters and more than 10,000 businesses will be helped, as well
as dozens of local governmental units.
Today’s announcement represents an important step
in distributing the federal resources necessary to aid New Jersey’s
rebuilding by developing the state’s specific plan for how those
resources will be spent. Following a seven day period for public
comment, the Christie Administration will submit the Action Plan to
HUD for approval. Following HUD approval, the Christie
administration will have in place a specific, detailed outline to
guide spending.

Residential / Commercial Debris
and Construction Material
The deadline for curb side
pick of all storm-damaged debris has passed. Pre-Sandy trash and
recycling rules are now in effect. All garbage shall be placed in
dark – colored, heavy – gauge plastic bags or metal, plastic or
vinyl containers that are designed for such purpose with handles
and a tight lid. The container shall be no more than fifty (50)
gallons in volume. The lid may not be attached in such a manner,
such as tied with a rope, string or cord, as to cause a hazard
for municipal collection personnel. Garbage placed for municipal
collection shall not contain any of the designated recyclable
materials, materials resulting from demolition, construction or
hazardous waste. Recycling materials shall be place at curbside
during your regularly-scheduled recycling pick-up date. All
materials resulting from demolition and construction must be
disposed of at the property owner’s expense. The Borough will
continue to accept clean beach sand. If you have not cleared the
sand from your property at this point you will need to contact the
Department of Public Works. The Department will inspect and provide
guidance on the sand removal and/or disposal on a case by case
basis.
Become a part of Lavallette’s rebuilding process by donating an
engraved board to be placed on the Lavallette Boardwalk. Each board
will include a personalized message and the Lavallette Seagull.
Your contribution will be donated to the Borough of Lavallette to
be used for the rebuilding of the best beach town on the island!
Cost to donate each board is $250.00.
Messages can be 2
lines, 25 characters/spaces per line. (All entries will be screened
for appropriate content. Committee has the right to reject entries)
Boards may be requested to be placed in a specific zone (limited
space available, so first to order, first to be placed!). Please
request zone and preferred street (no guarantees!) We will do our
best to accommodate zone requests.

Memorial Day Services
May
27, 2013 Memorial Park
Bay Boulevard & Brooklyn Ave
11:00am
On behalf of the Mayor and Council of Lavallette, I cordially invite all
to our Memorial Day Services 2013
Over the years Lavallette has observed
Memorial Day with a special ceremony. We are a shore community and we open
our season on this same weekend. Yet, despite the hustle and bustle, our
Borough takes the time to stop and remember those that sacrificed so that we
could enjoy the freedoms we share today. Every organization in town sends
a wreath or Living Memorial to adorn our Monument or to beautify a particular
place in town. Our Volunteer Services, our Police Force, and our scout
troops march behind the flags presented by Honor Guard to the Lavallette
Memorial Field where a crowd gathers to hear inspirational works, sing patriotic
songs and join together as one to say “Thanks.”
Our service is on Monday,
May 27, 2013 at 11:00 am at our Memorial Gardens located on Bay Blvd. and New
Brunswick Avenue. Hospitality will once again be provided by the First Aid
Squad and Auxiliary.

assistance. FEMA has provided authorization for municipalities to
adopt an Emergency Debris Removal from Private Property program. In
order for the Borough to consider the adoption of the program we
need to perform an assessment of the need. We have provided a
Right-of-Entry form that needs to be completed and returned back to
the Borough. The form can be mailed to the Borough of Lavallette,

Repopulation Plan The Borough of Lavallette has received approval to allow the repopulation of our residents and property owners. Your ability to repopulate back into Lavallette is contingent upon the restoration of your water, sewer, electric and gas service to your property. As noted below, it is imperative that you submit the completed NJ Natural Gas “tag” to the Code Enforcement Officer. Upon submission of the tag and verification that all other utilities are provided to your property a permit will be issued that will allow you permanent access. Decals will be issued for each vehicle owned by you or someone who resides with you. Please bring that vehicle information with you when you turn in your completed gas tag and request a repopulation decal. Code Enforcement / building office is located in a trailer in firehouse parking lot. |
Lavallette Project Connect The Borough is looking to connect those Lavallette
property owners that are having difficulties removing debris from
within their homes and volunteer groups that are willing to provide
this type of service. |
