One third of the cost ? $6 million ? is being paid for by a $1.8 billion pot of federally funded Community Development Block Grants to help the state recover from Sandy.

Didn't the Christie admin say NJ only had $300m of funds to distribute?

Christie used Sandy funds for senior complex in town where mayor endorsed him

Matt Friedman/The Star-Ledger By Matt Friedman/The Star-Ledger

January 28, 2014


TRENTON ? Gov. Chris Christie helped channel $6 million in federal Hurricane Sandy recovery dollars to a project conceived years before the storm struck, in an Essex County town that was not particularly hard hit, records show.

The funding, pushed for personally by the Republican governor, was announced less than two weeks before the town?s Democratic mayor formally endorsed him for reelection.

The development is an $18 million senior center and housing complex in Belleville called Franklin Manor. One third of the cost ? $6 million ? is being paid for by a $1.8 billion pot of federally funded Community Development Block Grants to help the state recover from Sandy.
