Post subject: Trenton Bureaucrats Dictate Housing in Bridgewater
Just when many communities, like Bridgewater Township, are meeting their obligations under the law, poof! Down comes another directive from the state bureaucracy. Joe Doria, Commissioner of the State Department of Community Affairs has OK’d the proposal of his Council on Affordable Housing to arbitrarily increase the number of homes currently scheduled to be built by 2018.
He says that developers will pick up the bill for this. Even if they did, it doesn’t come close to paying the full tab for such housing. Every time that a new housing unit is forced down the throat of a municipality by state mandate, it increases all of the public service, social and educational costs of the municipality and of the school district on a permanently recurring basis. And none of these costs – none – are covered by the rules proposed by Mr. Doria’s Trenton bureaucracy.
Clinton Township Mayor Nick Corcodilos, who represents a coalition of towns, has said that the DCA will be sued if it continues on this path. Good! In a recent newspaper article, both Bridgewater Township Planner Scarlett Doyle and Mayor Patricia Flannery have clearly made known the unfairness and imbalance of the State’s proposal.
Bridgewater Township should join other like-minded municipalities and execute a full-court press to stop this insane proposal.
