Welcome
As Mayor of Pleasantville, NJ, I encourage you to consider Pleasantville for your business location. Pleasantville (population 19,027) is a prime location for casino and hotel service industries. Casinos spend nearly $3 billion each year on goods and services. With new casino and hotel construction totaling nearly $2 billion underway, businesses in Pleasantville's Urban Enterprise Zone (UEZ) have a real competitive advantage in marketing to the casino industry. Pleasantville's business community ranges from manufacturing and warehousing to retail and professional firms. Major employers include Kmart, South Jersey Publishing, Verizon, AC Coin & Slot, and Tri County Building Supply. UEZ companies are eligible for an incentive package unmatched elsewhere in Atlantic County. For example, use-tax exemptions, unemployment tax reductions, corporate tax breaks, property tax abatements, and low-interest business loans are just the beginning of bottom-line cost benefits from a Pleasantville UEZ location In addition, retailers can offer customers a 50% reduction in state sales tax on eligible goods. The Pleasantville area supports both a trainable and skilled workforce that is essential to a successful business. Our school district offers a schools-to-careers training program to improve skill levels. Pleasantville offers a one-stop resource for planning, zoning, and construction approvals. Companies may also be eligible for low interest business loans; UI and corporate tax incentives; and use tax exemptions on building materials, services and most tangible property. UEZ services offer employee screenings along with access to state training grants and other workforce development incentives. Pleasantville's future as a center for business development has never been brighter. A waterfront commercial redevelopment plan will guide creation of a new from-the-ground-up retail and professional district. Our downtown Transit Village development district is benefiting from more than $7 million in new infrastructure, streetscapes, streets and roads, and bicycle paths. Both privately and publicly owned industrial tracts are being prepared for new flexible buildings to meet small, medium, or large company demands. We continue to enhance the quality-of-life with creation of more open space, parks, waterfront leisure, and bicycle paths. The sum total of our efforts for business decisions means locating your operations in Pleasantville equates to business opportunities to get money, make money, save money. I invite you to explore the benefits available from a location in Pleasantville, "A City on the Move".
