  • 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.

The flood boundaries shown were estimated based on water stages (water-surface elevations) and streamflows at selected USGS streamgages. Water-surface elevations along the stream reaches were estimated by steady-state hydraulic modeling, assuming unobstructed flow, and using streamflows and hydrologic conditions anticipated at the USGS streamgage(s). The hydraulic model reflects the land-cover characteristics and any bridge, dam, levee, or other hydraulic structures existing as of 2013. Unique meteorological factors (timing and distribution of precipitation) may cause actual streamflows along the modeled reach to vary from those assumed during a flood, which may lead to deviations in the water-surface elevations and inundation boundaries shown.

  • Our Town and Schools (Pdf)
    OUR TOWN HISTORY As the melting Wisconsin Glacier slowly retreated north 20,000 years ago, it left behind Lake Passaic in the curves of the Watchung Mountains. The land that is now Chatham was at the bottom of that lake, nearly 160 feet below the surface. The only visible sign of what would become Chatham was a long island formed by the top of the hill at Fairmount Avenue, known as Long Hill. Lake Passaic drained into the sea when the ice cap melted near Little Falls. The Passaic River slowly made its winding path through the marshlands. Early Settlers Six or seven thousand years ago the first people to settle in the area were the Lenni Lenape (“Original People”) Indians. It is believed that the Lenape migrated from Canada and possibly Siberia in search of a warmer climate. The Minsi group of Lenni Lenape occupied the northern section of New Jersey, including the area of present-day Chatham. In early summer the Lenape journeyed to the sea to feast on clams and oysters. Traveling from the northwest, they followed a path along the Passaic River through the Short Hills to the New Jersey shore. The trail became known as the Minisink Trail and followed a route that includes what is now Main Street in Chatham. The Lenni Lenape forded the Passaic River at a shallow point east of Chatham at a place they called “the Crossing of the Fishawack in the Valley of the Great Watchung.” “Fishawack” and “Passaic” are two versions of the many ways early settlers tried to spell the name they heard the Indians call the river.

    April 21, 2016 Ms. Heather Mailander Ridgewood Village Clerk 131 N. Maple Avenue Ridgewood, New Jersey 07450 Re: Petition to Repeal Bond Ordinance #3521 Dear Ms. Mailander: My name is Renée Steinhagen, and I am the Executive Director of New Jersey Appleseed Public Interest Law Center, a nonprofit legal advocacy organization, that inter alia represents residents and community-based organizations with respect to their rights of initiative and referendum under New Jersey law. My clients, the Committee of Petitioners in the aforementioned matter (and, in the successful Petition to Repeal Ordinance #3519) have asked me to write to you in response to the conclusion expressed in the advisory legal opinion posted on the Village’s website on March 30, 2016. In that opinion, the Village’s bond counsel has concluded that the Faulkner Act’s general referendum provisions, N.J.S.A. 40:69A-185 et al., and not the Local Home Rule Act specific provision governing bond referendum, N.J.S.A. 40- 49-27 govern my client’s recent petition. Counsel’s opinion appears to rest on the fact that the Faulkner Act does not include an explicit exclusion of such an “ordinance authorizing an improvement or the incurring of an indebtedness” as is included in the Walsh Act. N.J.S.A. 40:74-5 (Walsh Act exclusion). This view ignores the reasoning of the Appellate Division in In re Margate City, 424 N.J. Super. 242 (App. Div. 2012), holding that the right to petition challenging an ordinance authorizing the incurring of an indebtedness is available in every municipality, and that the substance and procedure of such a petition is governed by the Local Home Rule Act, and not the Walsh Act.

  • Chapter 1 Forms of Municipal Government
    Chapter 1 Forms of Municipal Government 1-1 AUTHORITY OF MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT In the State of New Jersey, the authority of municipal government flows from the state. Any exercise of municipal power must be authorized by state law, primarily statute.1 Certain powers are granted by the state to all municipalities, and such authorizations may be termed “general law” because they apply generally to every municipality in New Jersey. Other powers, however, are extended only to certain forms of government. Accordingly, a municipality’s powers are determined in large part by its form of government. Ten forms of municipal government are currently authorized by statute, six of which pre-date the 1947 New Jersey State Constitution. The six pre-1947 forms of government are City, Town, Borough, Township, Village, and Commission.2 Four forms of government are authorized by the 1950 Optional Municipal Charter Law, namely the Mayor-Council Plan, the Council- Manager Plan, the Small Municipality Plan, and the Mayor- Council-Administrator Plan.3 Additionally, certain municipalities operate outside any of the statutory forms under special charters granted by the state.4 1.
