Moorestown has met the requirements necessary to achieve Sustainable Jersey certification at the silver level.
Certified towns were announced at the New Jersey State League of Municipalities Conference on Nov. 19 in Atlantic City. Sustainable Jersey’s participating communities represent nearly 83% of the state’s municipalities.
For the 2024 Sustainable Jersey application cycle, 28 towns achieved certification at the more advanced silver level, for a total of 68 towns at that mark. Silver level certification requires that a town submit documentation to show it has completed a balance of the program’s sustainability actions and meets a minimum of 350 points.
“It is an honor to take time to recognize these impressive municipalities and the work they are doing to create a healthy environment for all,” said Randall Solomon, director of Sustainable Jersey. “From advancing energy efficiency to reducing waste and increasing climate resiliency, these towns have demonstrated their relentless commitment to creating a more sustainable future. We will continue to provide the tools, training and financial incentives they need to make progress.”
