Sandy Victims Can Visit State Mobile Recovery Cabinet In Manahawkin Thursday

Residents still recovering from Superstorm Sandy can get some help Thursday from Gov. Christie's Sandy Recovery Mobile Cabinet at the Ocean Acres Community Center.
Representatives from the state Department of Community Affairs and the Economic Development Authority will be on hand from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to meet with storm-battered residents and answer questions.
They will discuss housing and business assistance programs available through the federal Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) recently awarded as part of the federal disaster relief fund.
Homeowners and business owners interested in attending can expedite the process by bringing relevant documentation related to the issue they are facing.

The “reNew Jersey Stronger” Housing Initiative was launched May 24 to encourage and assist homeowners to reconstruct and resettle in their primary residences. The Stronger NJ Business Loan Program will be launched in July to help local businesses recover and expand within storm-impacted communities.
