West Windsor has received two grants totaling $725,000 from two state entities — $500,000 from the Department of Environmental Protection’s Green Acres fund and $225,000 from the Department of Transportation’s 2010 municipal aid program.
The $500,000 grant from the DEP was an amended increase to a previously obtained grant of $4,950,000 the township received in 2000.
Annually the DOT provides $78.75 million in aid to municipalities, but the governor increased that amount by $25 million this year. The $225,000 from the DOT will be used for the first phase of improvements to Village Road.
