Our panelists will provide an overview of the new affordable housing law and discuss various perspectives on why the bill was passed by the Legislature as well as their thoughts on the legislative intent, risks, benefits, or limitations, and why the legislation is controversial. This panel will conclude with a specific discussion of what the changes to the fair share obligations and the Fourth Round process mean for municipalities, the Fair Share Housing Center, and developers.
