Understanding how local government decisions are made is essential for anyone working to create stronger, healthier, and more equitable communities. From zoning approvals and redevelopment plans to code enforcement and neighborhood revitalization, municipal systems shape the future of every New Jersey community.
The NJ Planning, Zoning & Code Institute is a three-part webinar series provided by the Housing & Community Development Network of New Jersey. It is designed to navigate the processes that influence housing, development, and community investment. Through expert-led sessions, participants will gain a practical understanding of how zoning, planning, and code enforcement work, who the key decision-makers are, and how to effectively engage with local officials and public processes.

Wednesday, September 16th, 2026 – Wednesday, September 16th, 2026
Participants will learn the proper procedures for notifying owners of a municipality's intent to extend controls, including the required certified mail and email notice timelines. The workshop will also address the practical challenges of bringing units up to code prior to extending affordability controls, including strategies and lessons learned from communities that have navigated this process. Finally, attendees will review the control documents that must be filed to effectuate an extension, including the new deed restriction in the form prescribed at N.J.A.C. 5:80-26 Appendix E for rental units, the applicable deed restriction and restrictive covenant forms for ownership units, and the requirement that all extensions comply with the current UHAC requirements to receive credit under the Fair Housing Act.
