Pursuant to the 2024 New Jersey Fair Housing Act (“FHA”), municipalities that wish to remain immune from builder’s remedy lawsuits were required to adopt a resolution either accepting the DCA’s calculated obligation or acknowledging an obligation of their own calculation pursuant to FHA methodology by January 31, 2024, and file a Declaratory Judgment in Superior Court within 48 hours of adoption of said resolution or by February 3, 2024. There is unprecedented participation on behalf of municipalities in comparison to past rounds of COAH and court oversight.
Below is a list of municipalities that have availed itself to the FHA directive to file such actions by the statutory deadline. For more information on the Fourth Round affordable housing process, please contact Danielle Kinback, Esq. at dkinback@primelaw.com.
