you. All right. Thank you for pointing that out. Um Mr. Wilson, is is that a new handup? >> Yes, sir. Okay. Yeah. Um just just for clarity because I was the one that brought it up to 35 days and what I
wanted to put on the record is that we've had multiple changes as everyone's known with the map adding removing changing um zones a H01 to 2 to three and even four. And so with those with
those markouts or those lines in there that to be fair that we didn't as a planning board have those before us for 35 days and then you got to go fish for block and lots. That's that's what I stated about the 35 days.
Thank you, Council President. >> All right. Thank Thank you for those comments. All right. Any other uh comments from the council? All right, great. Then, uh, so, uh, roll call.

>> Yes, Dr. Waski. >> So, um Mr. Busach >> Ed. >> Yes. Um so when we adopt this ordinance then we have now then finished our fair share we have then done our our process.
Well, we we have yet for the most part and we have we have the resolutions yet to adopt today and then there is a correction that the council introduced uh to remove >> uh two more area five which consists of
uh two of those uh properties that are listed in ordinance 2606 and that was introduced and I think it's on for adoption in April if if I'm not mistaken. Um, >> is that right, Leansy? >> Yes. April 14th.
>> Okay. So, but but this this will get us over the uh over the threshold that we need to get over. >> Okay. So, I'd like to make a comment as we're about to adopt this ordinance. So, as Councilman Wilson noted last night, this council worked hard throughout this
process to protect Anglewood and its residents. However, some elements of this plan resulted result from the court process under the constitutional affordable housing obligations imposed on municipalities in New Jersey.
Affordable housing is a constitutional obligation in this state and the threat of a builder's remedy is real. If we fail to present a plan, which we are going, which we're voting on now, the the end of this plan or most of it that
is acceptable to the court, the city risk losing its immunity and control over zoning where and how development occurs. Without that protection, developers could seek projects that are far larger and more dense, potentially along the entire length of Paliside
Avenue, east to west, in residential areas, in industrial areas, in fact, anywhere in the city if a court determines that we feel failed to meet our constitutional obligation. As a township attorney, Scott Solomon and
Teneck explained to their council, "Under a build," and it was in the newspaper, "Under a um they like to use his quote, under a builder's remedy, you can end up with skyscrapers even on small lots. Under our current affordable
housing zoning, however, development still comes before the planning board. Even if zoning allows a certain density, that does not mean a project will automatically be approved. The planning board reviews each application to ensure
it meets requirements such as parking, storm water management, setbacks, traffic impacts, and site design before any project can move forward. That planning board oversight is essential and is one of the protections that we
preserve by adopting a compliant plan. Our responsibility is to protect Anglewood while complying with the law, protecting our neighborhoods, protecting our taxpayers, and maintaining local control over how our city develops. I
also want to thank the planning board for their review and comments and for recognizing the importance of having a compliant plan. Without one, the city could lose control over development in ways that none of us want to see. So, this plan protects our residents,
protects our taxpayers, and preserve Anglewood's control over its future. And and not only do I want to thank the planning board, I do want to thank our planners that we've been working with and I think we'll still continue to work with in the next few months, especially
Mr. Busak and and Mr. Zbo. So, thank you. >> Thank you. >> All right. Thank you for that comment. Any other comments from the council regarding 2606? Okay. Uh roll call then, please.
Councilwoman David, she's nodding yes again. All right. >> Yeah. >> Uh, Councilman took, you're muted. Councilman took. Councilman took, can you hear me? You're muted. >> Yes.
>> Thank you. Councilman Wilson. >> Yes. >> Councilwoman Wasatski. >> Yes. >> Council President Rosenw. >> Yes. And and of course, again, I' I'd also like to thank you, Ed, for your
commitment to this city. Again, as I said before, yes, this is a job. You do get paid, but clearly your your dedication goes way above just just that. and and your commitment to the city is is greatly greatly appreciated
during this very difficult process. >> Thank you, sir. >> Um so, um I just want some advice on how to deal with the next four resolutions. Um maybe Bill or Ed can help me. Um, do
you think we should introduce one by one and explain each one as they come up or I'm thinking maybe just explain all four right now and then we'll introduce introduce them and vote on them. >> Well, we we could do all at once. Uh,
>> yeah, the explanations are relative. >> Yeah, because it so these these seem Yeah, we've talked about them. They're kind of housekeeping a bit, but uh let's let's just explain them all and then we'll introduce them one by one and and see if there's any discussion and vote on them.
>> All right. I I can start and Bill, if you don't mind, you can >> Yeah. Yeah, please. Ed. Yeah. >> Um first is resolution 098 u uh 031326. It's the resolution endorsing the housing element and fair share plan. Uh
we are we as the council are required to endorse uh the housing element and fair share plan that has been adopted by the planning board uh last night. Uh that's one of the checklist items that we need to do. Uh and uh that's what that
resolution does. Uh resolution 099 uh of today's date is a resolution adopting the fourth round uh spending plan. Again, uh the city because it collects development fees is required to have a spending plan and that spending
plan is an appendix to the housing element and fair share plan but needs to be uh actually adopted by the city because the city is the one who spends the money and authorizes the expenditure the money not the planning board. Uh so
that's what resolution um uh 099 does. Uh the next resolution 100 uh with today's date is the resolution adopting the affirmative marketing plan. Uh as you know these affordable units that uh
are and will be created uh need to be made available to low and moderate income households. uh and it needs to be they need to be available to made available to uh households of that nature uh in the entire region which is
uh uh Hudson, Bergen, uh Pay and Sussex. Uh so this plan is just that. It is a uh a roadmap as to how these units when they become
available are made uh available to the public, how the public is notified, who has to be notified and the whole process as to how that is done. uh that is done this resolution uh the substance of the resolution that is the plan was done by
our administrative agent Triad um who is the one who actually does the the actual marketing of that uh the last resolution uh 101 uh uh with today's date uh really speaks to
uh my response to uh Dr. Was council councilwoman Ros was uh as to where we are in the plan. What this what this resolution is is a binding resolution for the city uh giving us the right to
extend the March 15th deadline and to maintain immunity uh that's created under the Fair Housing Act uh to take any further actions uh to implement um any settlement. Right
now there is no signed settlement among all the parties. The city it is implementing its plan unilaterally at this time. Uh it's consistent with what we presented during the course of mediation. Uh but I wanted to make uh
sure that the city maintained uh since we don't have a settlement we have objectives that we maintain our immunity. Uh this resolution uh goes through the in somewhat summary form the history of our mediation and
where we are and what we've done and makes that uh request uh to the uh Mount Laurel judge and the program judge. So uh that those are the four resolutions uh council president that we have. >> Okay. Thank you. Thank you for that
summary. All right. Do I have a mo can someone uh motion to introduce resolution 98? >> I make a motion. I make a motion to introduce number 98. >> I second it. Any discussion?
