Download Housing Element and Fair Share Plan 2008 (347 KB PDF)

Once again, the Township is preparing a Housing Element and Fair Share Plan for substantive certification by the NJ Council on Affordable Housing (COAH). A draft of the Plan may be downloaded here. The Plan is due to COAH by December 31 2008. Our 2005 Plan was submitted but never acted upon due to litigation brought against COAH by various groups in the State. At the conclusion of that litigation, COAH’s redrafted third-round regulations became effective in June. They were followed by several amendments which are still in the comment period. Communities wishing to participate in the COAH process must prepare their Plans pursuant to the adopted third-round rules as well as the pending amendments.
