This bill authorizes the State
Treasure to sell and convey a portion of the State's interest within the former
Woodbridge Development Center property located at 1291 Rahway Avenue in the
Township of Woodbridge, Middlesex County. The State will sell two
non-contiguous parcels and improvements thereon containing 2.321 acres.
The State will sell the property to the Township of Woodbridge for the appraised value of $910,000.
The property is considered surplus to the needs of the State.
The State House Commission will set the terms and conditions of the sale.
In 2018, the State House Commission approved the sale of a portion of the former site of the Department of Correction's Woodbridge Development Center property to the Township of Woodbridge. The current sale will subdivide the Power Plant Parcel of the former site so that the State retains the central portion of the parcel and certain rights and the Township of Woodbridge acquires the northern and southern portion of the parcel.
