TRENTON Gov. Chris Christie helped channel $6 million in federal
Hurricane Sandy recovery dollars to a project conceived years before the
storm struck, in an Essex County town that was not particularly hard hit,
records show.
.
The funding, pushed for personally by the Republican governor, was
announced less than two weeks before the towns Democratic mayor formally
endorsed him for reelection.
.
The development is an $18 million senior center and housing complex in
Belleville called Franklin Manor. One third of the cost $6 million is
being paid for by a $1.8 billion pot of federally funded Community
Development Block Grants to help the state recover from Sandy.
.
Christie administration officials say the project will help those
displaced from the storm from other towns, and was approved partly because
it was already planned and would quickly fill that need. But statements
from the governor and officials from Essex County and Belleville at the
projects unveiling barely mentioned storm recovery, focusing almost
exclusively on how the 137-unit housing project would help keep
Bellevilles seniors in town.
.
Now With the George Washington Bridge scandal raging and the mayor of
Hoboken claiming top Christie administration officials blackmailed her by
threatening to withhold Sandy funds an affordable housing advocate and a
prominent Democrat are questioning whether the Christie administration is
fairly distributing federal Sandy aid.
.
"We dont know the whole story of what happened here yet. But Governor
Christie should not be ordering Sandy funds directed to pet projects,"
said Adam Gordon, a staff attorney for the Fair Share Housing Center.
.
"What it points to is the need for further inquiry into how Sandy funds
were part and parcel of the governors campaign for reelection," said state
Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union). "And how they were misused for political
purposes rather than going to those who really in need."
