Welcome to the HCIA!
On behalf of the Hudson County Improvement Authority (HCIA), welcome to our website.
Located in the fastest-growing county in the State, the HCIA is an autonomous public agency with a mission of providing a wide range of needed services to the residents and businesses of Hudson County at the least cost to taxpayers. The HCIA has broad responsibilities in the County including solid waste and recycling management, financing for public & private initiatives, redevelopment projects, transportation management, recreation services, alternative energy initiatives and environmental education.
Recently, the HCIA completed the development of the Hudson County Schools of Technology High Tech High School at Laurel Hill Park in Secaucus. Located on 23 acres of Laurel Hill Park, the 340,000 square foot campus consists of a three-story central hub including classrooms, administrative offices, cafeteria, gymnasium, a 324-seat theater and three extensions for teaching environments. The $160 million project broke ground in May 2016 and was completed on time and on budget. With a commitment to environmental sustainability, the campus was designed and constructed to LEED-standards and includes a green roof, geothermal heating and windmills.
Hudson County is home to Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West in Jersey City- Hudson County’s first public golf course developed and financed by the HCIA. Since opening in June 2015, Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West has become one of the best public golf courses in the area featuring 9 challenging championship holes- 3 par fives, 3 par fours and 3 par threes totaling 3,200 yards.

Sustainability Ambassadors 2023
Why? As we continue to see and feel the impacts of climate change, sustainability has become increasingly more important. Today’s youth are going to be faced with new challenges presented by climate change and need the tools to understand sustainability, what it is, why it matters, and what they can do in their communities as agents of change. Sustainability Ambassadors is an opportunity for teens to understand the intersections of sustainability by exploring the sustainable development goals, sustainable food systems, consumption and waste, climate action, and more. Sustainability Ambassadors will graduate the program having identified ways they will make an impact in their communities.
What? In the spring, youth will participate in virtual and in-person learnings, site visits, and field trips to gain a deep understanding of the intersections of sustainability in everyday life, local communities, and globally. During the summer, youth will complete 10 volunteer hours at a community garden or community compost site. To culminate the program, youth will complete a final project and present their sustainability action plans. Upon completion of the program requirements, youth will earn their Rutgers & HCIA Sustainability Ambassador certificate.
