Municipal Program: Partners for Greener Communities

Testimoninals

 

“In 2005 Peapack Gladstone acquired 32 acres of Open Space, known as the Komline acquisition. This property was identified as one of only 3 ideal sites for much needed recreation space in our community, which could have otherwise resulted in a development in excess of 50 new homes. The Morris Land Conservancy generously provided a $ 500,000 grant, supplying critical funds needed to acquire this valuable property.  In addition, the MLC was instrumental in providing expert advice throughout the process from negotiation through final acquisition.”

 

Susan Wagner, Chair, Peapack & Gladstone Open Space Committee

 

“I have had the pleasure of working with MLC at both the municipal and county level over the past several years. MLC has been especially effective in getting our town and county open space plans produced. They continuously assist us with ongoing opportunities for preservation.  Byram Township is proud of its leadership role in open space preservation and MLC rightly deserves to share in the credit for that leadership.”

 

Raymond Bonker, Chair, Byram Open Space Committee

 

"Once again, Morris Land Conservancy came though for us.  Negotiations were very involved and many hours of their time were invested in the deal.  They stayed on top of all the details of the closing.  Morris Land Conservancy has continued to represent Mount Olive in a very collaborative and professional manner. They think Out-of-the-Box."

 

Kathy Murphy, Grant Coordinator, Mount Olive Township

 

“(Pequannock) is delighted to have been able to purchase the Pompton Plains Railroad Station that will become the Pequannock Township History Museum at the Pompton Plains Station through the technical help of the Morris Land Conservancy that made for a successful grant application to the Morris County Historic Preservation Trust Fund Advisory Board. This represents for Pequannock the first time in its 265 years history that the township will have a place to showcase the rich history of the Township of Pequannock."

 

Mayor Ed Englebart, Pequannock Township
