The Toms River Workforce Housing Community Land Trust exists to provide opportunities for very low, low, and moderate-income workers and other disadvantaged households to secure and maintain decent, affordable housing. The Trust will insure that this housing will be permanently preserved and will be available for future low to moderate-income residents of the community. The Trust pledges to protect the natural environment of the properties it owns and leases, and to promote the ecologically sound use of natural resources and the long-term health and safety of the community.

The Land Trust is organized and operated exclusively for charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The membership of the corporation has been initially limited to the Founding Trustees and their delegates. Additional members will be enrolled and officers of the corporation will be elected in accordance with the corporation’s by laws at the Land Trust’s annual meeting.
