3:45-4:45pm Panel Discussion: New Jersey Incentives for Sustainable Development
Vacant and contaminated properties blight neighborhoods, reduce the tax base, pose health risks and stymie local job creation. The good news is that housing, commercial development, recreational areas and solar energy have been developed successfully on remediated brownfield properties.
This panel will share the recipe for those successes. We'll discuss some financial and technical resources available to New Jersey municipalities and redevelopers to accomplish sustainable remediation and redevelopment.
Panelists:
- Jean Hamerman, CCLR, on Sustainable Jersey Brownfields Task Force
- Judy Karp, NJ Environmental Infrastructure Trust
- Trevor Shields, NJDEP, NJ Environmental Infrastructure Financing Program
- Wanda Monahan Esq., Law Offices of Wanda Chin Monahan, LLC & BCONE Board Member
Moderator: Geoff Forrest, LSRP, Dresdner Robin & BCONE Board Member
4:45-5:45pm Panel Discussion: Using the Marketplace to Drive Redevelopment
New financial tools, insurance products and other risk management instruments, recent court decisions and advancements in cleanup methods and technology all impact the brownfield remediation and redevelopment industries.
This panel will discuss opportunities to put these tools together to assist with your projects.
Panelists:
- Gordon C. Duus, Esq., Partner, Mandelbaum Salsburg
- Mark Vigneri, ERFS
- John Scagnelli, Esq. Partner, Scarinci Hollenback & LSRPA Board of Trustees
Moderator: Elizabeth Limbrick, NJII & BCONE Advisory Council member
