The affordable housing debate: Gubernatorial candidates weigh policy challenges, solutions at New Jersey Planning and Redevelopment Conference

The debate over how to expand affordable housing in New Jersey is far from over, even after the passage of a law to devise the next round of obligations for hundreds of towns and cities. That was clear last week during a roundtable discussion involving four candidates hoping to be the state’s next governor, who were on hand for the annual New Jersey Planning and Redevelopment Conference in New Brunswick.

No matter where you hail from in the Garden State, we can all agree that New Jersey is a great place to live, raise a family or host your business. And yet we face a number of challenges that require thoughtful planning as we promote development that ensures our economic vitality and stability. Together, New Jersey Future and the New Jersey Chapter of the American Planning Association (APA New Jersey) are proud to host our annual Planning and Redevelopment Conference this June 5 to 7, 2024, and invite you to join!
