Gov. Murphy Signs Growth Zone Bill for AC Airport

My comment:

Thank you, Governor Murphy for supporting what I consider the number one project, that can help South Jersey, especially Atlantic and Cape May counties. What I hope the bill includes, is some tax incentives that can be combined with CRDA incentives to attract a commercial air carrier from the south and/or the south west.

These parts of the country have many states that have yet to approve casino gaming and if cities like Atlanta or Dallas are included, they would make it much easier to provide the necessary air connections to attract conventions, trade shows and corporate meetings, that would help provide overnight demand for South Jersey resorts mid-week in the off season.
