Riverton site agenda includes Starbucks and Bass Pro Shops agreements

Sayreville officials have taken significant steps toward enhancing local commerce with two key resolutions regarding the Riverton site. During the recent SERA meeting on February 13, 2025, the council approved a recognition agreement with Sayville Seaport Associates and Starbucks Corporation, paving the way for Starbucks to lease space at the site. This agreement confirms that the current master ground lease with the redeveloper is in good standing, ensuring that there are no defaults and that the leasing process can proceed smoothly.

In addition to the Starbucks agreement, the council also approved a sub-project allocation agreement for Bass Pro Shops. This resolution allows the redeveloper to move forward with the development of the property in subprojects, which is a requirement outlined in the redevelopment agreement. The sub-project form provides essential information about the Bass Pro Shops development, further solidifying the plans for revitalizing the area.

These resolutions are standard procedural steps that facilitate the leasing of space to new tenants, indicating a positive trajectory for economic development in Sayreville. As these businesses prepare to establish themselves in the community, residents can look forward to increased job opportunities and enhanced local services. The council's actions reflect a commitment to fostering a vibrant commercial environment in Sayreville, with more developments expected in the near future.
