Woolwich Township, New Jersey

7 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 3, ISSUE 7 According to Callahan, the next three to five years will be “critical” in executing the plan to stimulate the results of “all that hard work” that preceded his tenure on the township committee. “These projects were many years in the making,” he affirms. “We’re just here to carry it all through.” With the long-awaited installation of public sewer and water along the Route 322 Corridor, Woolwich Township anticipates a major transformative juncture in its existence. With access from Exit 2 of the New Jersey Turnpike, Route 295, and the Commodore Barry Bridge, the corridor will likely see important highway- and destination-based growth in the not so distant future. “Dirt is pretty much moving everywhere you can possibly see it,” quips Mayor Craig Frederick. “We’re experiencing tremendous growth in warehousing as well as planned retail growth on the Route 322 Corridor. We’re also in the South Harrison Township, Swedesboro, Logan Township, and Woolwich Township. The district employs over 400 staff – many of whom are local residents – and partners with local government, businesses, and law enforcement to promote learning and development through community service. “Due to the influx of young families, we’ve needed to build a number of schools and put additions on existing schools, so the increase in taxes over the last 15 to 20 years has been pretty steep,” Callahan admits. “We’ve basically, as residents, been footing the bill for a lot of that through increased school taxes and other services. But we’re finally at a point where we’re putting the infrastructure in place, with a nice pipeline of projects behind that with rateables. Ultimately, we’ll find ways to make Woolwich more attractive and affordable from a tax standpoint.” 60 Years of Logistics Real Estate Improving the communities in which we do business LogistiCenter SM at Woolwich | Building Rendering LogistiCenter SM at Woolwich is a three-building, 1,151,485-square-foot industrial park in Woolwich Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey.
