The award recognizes the Cape May County Open Space Board for the visionary step of dedicating a portion of its funding to a historic preservation grant program. “At a time when other funding sources for historic preservation have, sadly, dried up, this new funding stream for bricks-and-mortar projects will provide a major boost to our collective efforts to preserve our historic landmarks,” Zuckerman said. “We wish to thank the leaders of the Cape May County Open Space Board — Freeholder Will Morey, Chairperson Peter Lomax and Planning Director Leslie Gimeno — along with the other members of the board, David Clemans, David Craig, Michael McLaughlin and Jim Shroder.”
