Fourth Round Affordable Housing Program (Route 9 developments, Jamestowne Village overlay, cemetery consent)
Description
A package ordinance covering two 100% affordable housing developments on Route 9 on township-donated land, conveyance agreements, overlay zoning including Jamestowne Village, municipal consent for a cemetery, and an amended spending plan — voted down on first reading.
Impact summary
The City Council denied it on Oct 19, 2026.
Rejection leaves the township's affordable housing compliance strategy unresolved and raises the risk of a builder's remedy ruling permitting thousands of market-rate units without local zoning review.
