The County of Ocean has been allocated CARES Act funding from New Jersey Department of Community Affairs under the Community-Based Grant Block (CDBG) CV2 program. The County intends to apply to receive this grant funding, an allocation of approximately $1,697,502.00 before the application deadline, December 15, 2022.

These funds will support the planning, design, and implementation of the "Butler Building," a receiving, storage, and distribution facility for COVID-19 testing and vaccination supplies for the Ocean County Department of Health. The facility will target support of supply distribution to low-moderate income clientele and provide testing for County essential workers.

Questions or comments regarding the application can be directed to the County Planning Department.
