The Department coordinates economic development activities such as redevelopment
projects, financial assistance and training to small businesses and facade
improvement grants for business properties. The Department has assisted
in the development of over $700,000,000 of new construction and a 27%
increase in the number of jobs in the city in the last 10 years.
The Department also
funds and coordinates community development activities for New Brunswick.
Projects have included the rehabilitation of over 900 homes and the construction
of over 400 new homes for low or moderate income families, as well as
the construction of new sidewalks and community clean up projects.
Local planning is
also coordinated by the Department. The Department, through the New Brunswick
Planning Board, develops and updates the City's Master Plan, administers
local zoning regulations and develops redevelopment planning strategies
to revitalize areas in town in need of improvement.
