BoardBorough of Harrington Park Amendment to Housing Element and Fair Share Plan 2025-2035
This amendment to the Borough of Harrington Park's Housing Element and Fair Share Plan details the Borough's strategy to address its Fourth Round affordable housing obligation for the 2025-2035 period. The plan outlines mechanisms such as leveraging Medicaid beds from an existing assisted living facility and implementing an Accessory Apartment Program to satisfy its initial obligation. It further addresses the unmet housing need by expanding inclusionary overlay zoning and pursuing a partnership with Bergen County United Way for special needs housing. The overall objective is to create realistic opportunities for affordable housing despite the Borough's limited vacant and developable land resources.
