Shifting their obligations on places like AP
Planner wants to stop change The mayor and Township Council in Howell should oppose legislation that would bar municipalities from selling off their affordable housing requirements to other towns. The bill aims to eliminate regional contributions agreements, or RCAs. They allow a municipality to transfer to another town up to 50 percent of the affordable housing the state Council on Affordable Housing requires. The sending municipality pays the receiving municipality, which will build or rehabilitate the low- and moderate-income housing. RCAs are a helpful tool for meeting our obligations and are part of Howell's affordable housing plan. We have enough to plan for the amount mandated by COAH. Removing RCAs would create an unnecessary hardship. Paul Schneider CHAIRMAN HOWELL PLANNING BOARD ------------------------ Yahoo!
