Mission
|
|
Open
space is a
valuable asset of our borough’s environment.
Open space in a town can provide breathing room, areas of greenery and
recreational areas for its inhabitants. Since the Borough of Tinton
Falls is
approaching a fully built up condition, it has become important to
attempt to
save some open space for the enjoyment of all. The Open Space Committee
of
Tinton Falls was created by the Borough Council to aid in the quest for
open
space to preserve.
The
mission of the
Open Space Committee is to survey the
open space needs of Tinton Falls as expressed by various stakeholders,
among
which are recreation and schools, to discover and map those lands that
still
are present within the borough boundaries and that would be candidates
for
preservation, to discover what mechanisms may be utilized to preserve
open
space and what financial means are available to acquire open space.
The
results of the
activities of the Opens Space Committee
will be documented and presented to the Borough council for their
discussion
and possible action.
