While many industries were hurt by the pandemic, New Jersey saw a dramatic increase in the demand for warehouse expansion and new warehouse workers. While some communities have welcomed new warehouses, the sudden sprawl has been met with pushback from advocates and residents concerned about the environmental impact and how it impacts traffic in their communities. This week, Rhonda Schaffler sits down with supporters and opponents of warehouse expansion to discuss how it has given a financial boost to certain communities, the demand for new workers and what advocates say the state can do to control the rapid warehouse sprawl. Plus, Rhonda breaks down the major headlines of the week, including a new report detailing the financial future of New Jersey.
