Borough of Fair Lawn Housing Element and Fair Share Plan 2025-2035
This document, a Master Plan Amendment, outlines the Borough of Fair Lawn's strategy to address its affordable housing obligations for 'Round 4' (July 1, 2025 - June 30, 2035), as well as its cumulative fair share obligation from 1987 through 2035. The plan details how the Borough will meet a present need obligation of 65 units (adjusted to 17 units based on a structural conditions survey) and a prospective need obligation of 412 units, adjusted to a Realistic Development Potential (RDP) of 17 units due to vacant land limitations. It further commits to providing a realistic opportunity for 99 units of the unmet need through specific development projects, zoning mechanisms including the River Road Overlay District Expansion and new R4-O overlay zones, and an Accessory Apartment Program, ensuring compliance with housing type requirements.
