All Borough owned lands not already sold, designated for another use, or in the planning process for sale are open and available for nomination. A land nomination is an opportunity for Borough residents to propose the future use of available Borough-owned parcels of land.
Process
When you submit a nomination:
- The Division of Natural Resources Development will evaluate its potential use as indicated by you on the form.
- Field studies are conducted, research is compiled and a report of recommendations is produced.
- Recommendations go through public review, as well as internal coordination through other Borough Departments and certain Advisory Commissions.
- The Borough Mayor and Assembly review the report and a final decision is made.
- Depending on the outcome of this final decision the property may be sold, proposed for further planning and research, or retained.
