  • Running Head: the NEW NORTH JERSEY The
    Running head: THE NEW NORTH JERSEY The New North Jersey: Why we need regional planning Andrew R. Herrera Ramapo College of New Jersey THE NEW NORTH JERSEY 2 Abstract Research will focus on the issue of regional planning for greenhouse gas reductions and climate change resiliency in the northern New Jersey region. This paper argues that sound regional planning can provide the guidance to ensure land use and transportation law significantly reduce carbon emissions and help societies prepare for stronger or more frequent extreme weather events through fair and equitable solutions. This paper will advance the case that as the federal government retreats from aiding planning programs in places like New Jersey, the state will need to develop new regional planning programs focusing on New Jersey issues. It will inspect the potential losses to resilient planning should the federal government cut its domestic spending, as is currently proposed, and search for potential policy solutions by analyzing plans from external institutions such as the Regional Plan Association (2017) and Together North Jersey (2015). The documents reviewed argue that the loss of federal aid may be irreplaceable due to the difficulties of cooperating across planning jurisdictions, such as towns, counties and states. THE NEW NORTH JERSEY 3 Introduction Climate change presents two substantial problems for modern societies. The first is that they must reduce their carbon emissions from industry and daily life in order to mitigate further increases in the earth’s temperature. The second is that because of the gradual rise in temperature which has already begun, societies will need to prepare their infrastructure and organization to be resilient against stronger storms, more extreme weather, and sea level rise.

  • North Versus South, Jersey Style
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Contact: All references must attribute: PATRICK MURRAY “Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll” 732-263-5858 (office) 732-979-6769 (cell) For more information: Monmouth University Polling Institute [email protected] 400 Cedar Avenue West Long Branch, NJ 07764 EMBARGOED to: www.monmouth.edu/polling Monday, March 31, 2008, 5:00 am NORTH VERSUS SOUTH, JERSEY STYLE A shared sense of place hard to find in the Garden State New Jersey has had a split identity ever since Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret divided the new colony into east and west in the late 1600s. More than 300 years later, the state is still a tale of two Jerseys, with the more populous northern portion geared toward New York City and the southern half tuned into Philadelphia – Ben Franklin’s “barrel tapped at both ends.” Do these regional identities mean anything? Well, according to the latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll , if you’re from North Jersey, it means very little. However, if you’re from South Jersey, it means a great deal. When asked whether government spending and programs are distributed fairly across the Garden State or if a certain region is favored, state residents give the edge to the north. About 1-in-3 (33%) say that North Jersey gets more than its fair share of resources. Only 10% feel South Jersey benefits more than it should from public programs. Another 21% feel that aid is divided equitably across both regions and 35% have no opinion. The poll also found that how you see this issue depends on where you live.

The Cross Harbor Freight Program (CHFP) would provide near-term and long-term improvements to the regional freight network by reducing truck traffic congestion, improving air quality, and providing economic benefits. The DEIS was prepared in compliance with applicable federal environmental laws, rules, and regulations, including Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, Section 4(f) of the U.S. Department of Transportation Act (1966), and Executive Order 12898, “Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations,” among others, and identifies permits or approvals that may be required for the implementation of the Build Alternatives identified therein.

  • Commuting to Manhattan a Study of Residence Location Trends for Manhattan Workers from 2002 to 2009
    Commuting to Manhattan A study of residence location trends for Manhattan workers from 2002 to 2009 Mitchell L. Moss, Carson Y. Qing, and Sarah Kaufman Rudin Center for Transportation Policy and Management New York University Wagner School of Public Service March 2012 1 Introduction Manhattan, a global center of finance, culture, fashion and media, harnesses a workforce of 2 million people. Regionally, Manhattan is the business hub for the New York metropolitan area, with commuters entering the city every morning from the other four boroughs, New Jersey, the Hudson Valley, western Connecticut, and Long Island, and distant locations, such as eastern Pennsylvania. The workforce of Manhattan is both growing and changing. There is a growing set of high-income, service-related occupations, and an increasing number of workers are residing in the outer boroughs or to the west, across the Hudson River in New Jersey. In fact, Manhattan now has 59,000 “super-commuters” who do not live within the metropolitan region. This report examines key trends in the residential location of Manhattan workers. We also discuss the travel, occupation, and income characteristics of Manhattan workers living in the surrounding metropolitan region. Finally, we explore the strength, resilience and vitality of Manhattan as a global economic and cultural hub in the 21st century. Key Findings More than two-thirds of Manhattan workers live in New York City as of 2009. About one-quarter of Manhattan workers live within the combined metropolitan region including Northern New Jersey, Long Island, the Hudson Valley, and Western Connecticut. The remaining 6% live in regions beyond the New York area.
