| Today, Senator Robert Singer’s (R-30) bill, S-2840, passed the Senate Environment and Energy Committee. The bill directs the Department of Environmental Protection to ease certain conservation restrictions imposed on a property if it is needed for the physical expansion of a special needs school like the School for Children with Hidden Intelligence in Lakewood. In turn, a separate piece of property will have a conservation easement imposed on it.
“This legislation will help create the necessary space for schools dedicated to supporting children with special needs, while still upholding our environmental responsibilities,” said Sen. Singer. “This is a thoughtful approach that aims to provide our children with the resources they need and preserving our natural resources.”
