Resident Relocation & Site Redevelopment

The results of the Visioning Process were approved by JCHA’s Board of Commissioners on July 10, 2019. Prior to starting the redevelopment process, the JCHA must go through a series of steps that involve review and/or approval by the JCHA Board of Commissioners, HUD and the City of Jersey City (See “What Happens Next?” Infographic).

Relocation of Holland Gardens residents is not anticipated to begin until early 2024 at the soonest. The JCHA has committed to a one-to-one replacement of Public Housing (ACC) units upon completion of the project and continues to meet with Holland Gardens residents on a quarterly basis to provide revitalization updates and information about relocation (click here to view livestreamed videos of relocation sessions and documents from meetings).

The Relocation of residents will be subject to the standards put forth by the Uniform Relocation Act as well as the JCHA’s Resident Right to Return Policy.

To protect the right to relocation assistance and ability to return to the project upon completion of the revitalization, current Holland Gardens residents should not leave their unit until receiving a written “Notice of Relocation Eligibility” and meeting with their assigned Relocation Counselor at least one time.
