Abstract: NJ Highlands Designated Centers
Purpose:
To delineate areas for potential growth and resource protection for planning purposes.
Supplemental_Information:
Smart growth is an approach to resource planning and management where growth and development are concentrated and organized around “centers” with compact, walk-able, bicycle-friendly land use patterns, typically including mixed-use development with a range of housing choices. It generally reflects value for long-range, regional considerations of sustainability over short-term economic benefits. Smart growth promotes land use patterns with a sense of community and place, multi-modal and alternative modes of transportation, a balance of employment and housing, and an equitable distribution of the costs and benefits of development. It also includes the preservation and enhancement of natural and cultural resources. Finally, as an efficient and less automobile dependent pattern and form of growth, it reduces energy use, which in turn improves air quality and reduces carbon dioxide emissions linked to global warming.
Centers may be sought by municipalities by proposing such a designation in a Petition for Plan Conformance that is both consistent with the State Development and Redevelopment Plan's criteria for center, core, and node designation and is in conformance with the Highlands Regional Master Plan. Center designation and the delineation of Highlands Environmental Resource Areas with the Center are created to ensure protection of Highlands resources and to identify appropriate areas for potential growth.
