The NJHOMES roadshow came to Newark six days after Moorestown. I presented NJ HOMES Choice in my role as Director of the DHCR Data Center, focusing on how the tool connects a town’s affordable housing targets under A4/S50 to what it can realistically build.

Planning stays with the municipality. The tool gives local officials the numbers, and they decide what gets built and where. New Jersey Senate Majority Leader Teresa Ruiz was in the audience.

The roadshows followed the statewide NJHOMES launch in New Brunswick in April.
