During the last forty years, Brookdale Community College
has experienced tremendous growth. With enrollment continuing
to rise, the college is faced with many challenges. In recent
years, while successfully managing their institutional growth,
Brookdale has demonstrated their commitment to partnering
with the LVGA to address the community’s challenges
as well.
• BCC is participating in ongoing meetings with the
LVGA focused on community concerns and improvement projects.
• BCC is actively engaged in discussions with the
LVGA regarding possible solutions to diminish congestion at
the college entrance and exit intersections. Brookdale supported
the construction of the roundabout at the CR520 entrance and
reports that it has been a remarkable success.
• BCC has embraced the LVGA’s concept of “Smart
Routes” to reach the Lincroft campus. “Smart Routes”
are routes that either bypass congested areas or reduce the
distance to the campus therefore relieving some pressure from
Lincroft’s most congested roadways. BCC has published
“Smart Routes” in their orientation materials
and on the college website.
• BCC has provided the LVGA with a meeting space to
conduct our monthly Board of Directors meeting.
• BCC fully supports the LVGA’s efforts to raise
supplemental funds needed for the improvement of the Lincroft
Village Green Park and, consequently, the college has pledged
the use of their facilities for concerts and other fund raising
events. Brookdale designed and printed the LVGA ad journal,
which was used to promote the generosity of local businesses
and residents that have made contributions to the park fund.
The collaboration between the LVGA and Brookdale Community
College has been very productive. As our community faces future
challenges and opportunities, we are looking forward to ongoing
support from the college.
