Redevelopment

Heyer, Gruel & Associates has significant planning experience in the area of redevelopment and can provide effective and insightful direction. The firm is intimately familiar with the requirements of the Local Housing and Redevelopment Law.  Members of the firm have served as expert witnesses in a number of redevelopment cases. We have expertise in working with groups involved in the redevelopment process, including redevelopment agencies, planning boards, governing bodies, area residents and property owners. In addition, with the aid of our urban design group, we have the experience and capability of presenting the issues, objectives and plans for redevelopment clearly, concisely and effectively.

We have also participated on a number of panels regarding redevelopment and the impact of the Local Housing and Redevelopment Law. The two principals, Susan Gruel and Fred Heyer completed an article on redevelopment which has been published by the New Jersey Planning Officials.They also serve as instructors through the NJRA Redevelopment Institute.
