Toward a Smart Future: Smart Growth Economic Development Coalition director Ted Zangari discusses the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008

Ted Zangari, Member of the Firm, was interviewed for a New Jersey & Company article regarding his role as Smart Growth Economic Development Coalition Director and the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, which is a package of bills that were passed by the state legislature this year, which aim to change the way permits are processed statewide, reconfigure the way economic incentives are used by the state and encourage corporate relocation and retention in the state through additional incentives. Ted Zangari stated: “All the bills are important….In the fall we hope to have ‘money bills’ introduced, which will make changes to revenue allocation district financing, the urban transit hub tax credit program and other initiatives, all of which will spur development and attract and retain business as end-users in those projects.”
