Metropark Childcare Infrastructure Gap

Summary

A resident and finance executive argued that roughly 800 new apartments near Metropark are coming without childcare to match — no licensed weekend care exists in Middlesex County, and no universal pre-K serves Iselin families. She asked the township to help find sites and connect her Nova Academy project with redevelopment partners.
