Satisfying our Constitutional Obligation
In 1975, the New Jersey Supreme Court decided the Mt. Laurel I case, which determined New Jersey municipalities had a constitutional obligation to provide a realistic opportunity for the construction of low and moderate income housing. In 1985, the Fair Housing Act was adopted, which created a state administrative agency known as the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH). COAH was responsible for reviewing and approving a municipality’s plan to satisfy its constitutional obligation.
COAH failed to adopt regulations regarding how a municipality’s obligation would be satisfied, so in 2015 the New Jersey Supreme Court decided the Mt. Laurel IV decision, which directed municipalities to seek judicial approval of its affordable housing plan.
