Beginning in spring 2012, a team of faculty, researchers and graduate students from the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) generated the work found in this document. The North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority and NJ TRANSIT both spon- sored the visioning and served on the committee to help steer the effort. A Steering Committee made up of members from Hackensack city government, its business community, its residents, Bergen County officials, and Regional Plan As- sociation guided the team. The project focuses on the areas surrounding Hackensack’s two NJ TRANSIT rail stations and its Bus Terminal. Future development around each will help anchor the city’s retail core, complementing Hackensack’s recently adopted Re- Anderson Street Station habilitation Plan and strengthening the relationship of the downtown to the larger city and region. This planning builds upon Hackensack’s many assets; it has a dense and diverse population; it is the seat of county government; and it is the home to a growing health care sector centered on Hacken- sack University Medical Center. The planning effort described here incorporated a gradu- Downtown Bus Terminal ate-level Infrastructure Planning Studio at NJIT’s New Jer- sey School of Architecture. The studio worked closely with Essex Street Station the Steering Committee in planning efforts and community outreach. The team reviewed background information and interviewed private and public sector parties familiar with retail, office and residential real estate markets. Using these resources, the team developed alternative scenarios for spe- cific sites around the three transit nodes. The NJIT team hosted and facilitated two Saturday visioning sessions in March to advance visions for each site with com- munity support. The first Saturday focused on supplementary efforts in the Rehabilitation Zone, the second on the specific transit nodes. The team then synthesized the results of both sessions during the month of April. Student teams presented their findings to the public at a Hackensack City Council ses- sion in early May. This report includes all outcomes of this process. It could not have come about without the spirited support of Mayor Jorge Meneses, Councilwoman Karen Sasso, and City Man- ager Stephen Lo Iacono; Donna Orbach from Bergen County; Albert Dib, Jerry Lombardo, Frank Pratt of the Hackensack business community; NJ TRANSIT’s John Del Colle and Fran- cis Reiner of DMR Architects. With their continued help, it is our sincere hope that the many great ideas offered by the community and presented here can be realized.

  • Housing Diversity and Affordability in New
    HOUSING DIVERSITY AND AFFORDABILITY IN NEW JERSEY’S TRANSIT VILLAGES By Dorothy Morallos Mabel Smith Honors Thesis Douglass College Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey April 11, 2006 Written under the direction of Professor Jan S. Wells Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy ABSTRACT New Jersey’s Transit Village Initiative is a major policy initiative, administered by the New Jersey Department of Transportation that promotes the concept of transit oriented development (TOD) by revitalizing communities and promoting residential and commercial growth around transit centers. Several studies have been done on TODs, but little research has been conducted on the effects it has on housing diversity and affordability within transit areas. This research will therefore evaluate the affordable housing situation in relation to TODs in within a statewide context through the New Jersey Transit Village Initiative. Data on the affordable housing stock of 16 New Jersey Transit Villages were gathered for this research. Using Geographic Information Systems Software (GIS), the locations of these affordable housing sites were mapped and plotted over existing pedestrian shed maps of each Transit Village. Evaluations of each designated Transit Village’s efforts to encourage or incorporate inclusionary housing were based on the location and availability of affordable developments, as well as the demographic character of each participating municipality. Overall, findings showed that affordable housing remains low amongst all the designated villages. However, new rules set forth by the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) may soon change these results and the overall affordable housing stock within the whole state.

  • Gateway National Recreation Area Headquarters Staten Island, New York June 2003 CLIMATE FRIENDLY PARKS FRAMEWORK for LOCAL ACTION PLANNING
    Gateway National Recreation Area Headquarters Staten Island, New York June 2003 CLIMATE FRIENDLY PARKS FRAMEWORK FOR LOCAL ACTION PLANNING Produced by the NPS Environmental Leadership Program, with technical assistance from EPA’s Global Change Information Branch and NPS’s Natural Resources Stewardship and Science Division. This Document Reports the Accomplishments of Gateway National Recreation Area (NRA) staff who participated in NPS’s first Climate Friendly Parks Workshop in June 2003. Gateway staff developed the following Framework for Local Action Planning, which outlines park-wide goals and strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The approaches provided in the Framework are intended to serve as an example for each of Gateway NRA’s three management units when they devise unit-specific strategies for meeting park-wide goals. The Framework proposes reducing greenhouse gases through increased awareness about climate change and management of transportation, buildings and facilities, grounds and lands, and waste.
