Presented in cooperation with the NJSBA Land Use Section
New Jersey is among the most racially segregated states in the nation. Recent developments in federal law upholding and enforcing the so-called "disparate impact" standard for proof of discrimination under the federal Fair Housing Act, including U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Texas v. Inclusive Communities, the Mt. Holly Gardens decision by the 3rd Circuit, and HUD's new ”disparate impact” regulations, put into question the legality of zoning and planning decisions by municipalities that may have a disparate impact upon housing for racial minorities.
Register today to learn what you need to know about these recent developments, including:
• Land use decisions can be analyzed under the disparate impact standard
• How cases can be brought and defended in the state and federal courts
• The "builder's remedies" that are potentially available
• How municipalities can plan to comply with the federal Fair Housing Act in light of the “disparate impact” standard
...and much more!
