Updated NJ development blueprint due
Business leaders and land-use planning experts who attended PlanSmart NJ’s regional planning summit said they are cautiously optimistic about the state’s new development blueprint.
The State Planning Commission will vote on adopting the overhauled state plan April 25. Six public hearings took place after a draft 41-page plan was circulated. An updated draft is expected to be released by the end of the week. (Jordan, Gannett)
