Woodbridge officials have high hopes for the township’s downtown business district. Senator Joseph Vitale served as interim Mayor for Woodbridge Township for four months, after the death of Mayor Frank. G Pelzman. During this period he helped obtain a 50,000 grant from the New Jersey Department of Community affairs, money that is now slated to help revitalize the downtown area of the township.
Senator Vitale hopes the Main Street Business district will lead to the renovation and restoration of historic buildings. The improvement of storefronts and new living opportunities above the storefronts.
“…the downtown area should always look to reinvent itself form time to time as an ongoing process of study, said Senator Vitale in reaction to the proposed plan.
Though Vitale is not working directly with development plan now, he says he will assist the local governing body in obtaining additional grants for other projects.
