TRENTON, NJ—The New Jersey Economic Development Authority is taking applications for the Small Business Lease Assistance Program. The program, which reimburses small businesses a portion of annual lease payments for new or additional space leased in targeted cities around the state, is part of the NJEDA's efforts to invest in communities by revitalizing commercial corridors.
“Bringing small businesses back to New Jersey's main streets and downtown areas is central to creating walkable, transit-accessible neighborhoods where people will choose to live and work,” says Lieutenant Governor Sheila Y. Oliver, who also serves as Commissioner of the Department of Community Affairs. “NJEDA's Small Business Lease Assistance Program will help to attract new businesses, create new jobs, and lend a hand in community revitalization – it's a win-win for New Jersey.”
