Twp. of Washington NJ, township Mayor Peter Calamari comment’s on the State’s “affordable housing” mandates for Twp. of Washington:
As your mayor, I want to speak to our residents not just as an elected official, but as a neighbor who shares your deep love for this community.
Navigating the state’s affordable housing mandates has been one of the most difficult and complex challenges we’ve faced. These mandates often strip municipalities of local control, forcing towns into “one-size-fits-all” solutions. But thanks to the leadership and commitment of our Town Council, we’ve been able to push back, protect our zoning authority, and make decisions that reflect the best interests of Washington Township.
