If you do not agree with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, erase your copy or return the software and/or data to The New Jersey Office of Smart Growth (OSG) without using or copying it in any way. The End User is defined as any person or organization receiving these files directly from OSG. OSG grants to the End User a license to use the software, data and documentation provided the End User agrees to the following: I. LIMITED WARRANTY: Notwithstanding the special conditions regarding the subject data specified in part III of this licensing agreement, the Office of Smart Growth makes no representations of any kind, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability of fitness for a particular use, nor are any such warranties to be implied, with respect to the digital software and data furnished. The Office of Smart Growth assumes no responsibility to maintain them in any manner or form. II. TERMS OF AGREEMENT: The data received from OSG is to be used solely by the End User and will not be reproduced or redistributed for use by anyone else, without first obtaining written permission from OSG. III. SPECIAL CONDITIONS: The delineations are part of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan produced and released by the New Jersey Office of Smart Growth. The boundaries reflect delineations as of the date the files are posted on our website: www.njsmartgrowth.com. Any map amendments accepted in the interim are not reflected in these delineations. Due to the complex nature of the State Development and Redevelopment Plan and the state planning process and the relationship of all of the individual parts of the plan, questions regarding the plan should not be resolved by or even considered using maps alone. This would provide a limited view of the comprehensive approach embodied in the plan. For this reason, any questions relating to the plan or its delineations for the State should be directed to OSG. The information has been delivered in a standard format. OSG assumes no liability for inability of the End User to use the data/software for any financial damages caused by such an inability. OSG agrees, however, to assist in resolving any problems in using the software or data and to reproduce the data if necessary.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
As the information used to create this dataset is derived from paper maps and textual descriptions, the boundaries may not be exact. Also, the Main Street program does not determine eligibility strictly on location within the boundary. Services may be extended to areas within the greater municipality outside of the designated Main Street Community area at the discretion of the MSNJ Coordinator.
Completeness_Report:
Each of the designated Main Street Communities are represented in this dataset. Boundaries are subject to change based on level of designation or at the request of the MSNJ Program Director.
