JCRA

The Jersey City Redevelopment Agency (JCRA) was created in 1949 as an autonomous Agency to serve as the City's primary vehicle to eliminate blight, to create opportunities and to attract residential, commercial and industrial real estate projects. The Agency's statutory authority was set forth in New Jersey Redevelopment Agencies Law (LRHL), P.L. 1992, C.79 (N.J.S.A.) 40.A:12A-1 et seq.) in 1992. The local redevelopment powers of the Agency are outlined in the 1992 statute. The Agency's broad responsibilities include project facilitation, site assemblage and clearance, environmental remediation and developer selection within redevelopment areas. Since its inception, JCRA has been responsible for the direct reinvestment of billions of dollars in Jersey City and tens of thousands of jobs. The Agency is committed to enhancing the quality of life for all residents of Jersey City by guiding responsible development and reinvestment in all neighborhoods and communities in Jersey City."
