Senator Steve Oroho, R-Sussex, Morris and Hunterdon, said he has appealed the Corzine administration's refusal to release a report on housing growth that was presented to the State Planning Commission in March. The study reportedly shows that the Council on Affordable Housing grossly overestimated how much so-called "affordable" housing is needed in New Jersey. Oroho filed his appeal with the New Jersey Government Records Council...
Professor Robert Burchell of Rutgers University made a Power Point presentation at the March 25 meeting of the Planning Commission. According to those in attendance, the presentation indicated that the state can expect flat job growth over the next 20 years. COAH relied on an outdated and flawed study that estimated the state would add 790, 000 jobs during the same period when the council issued rules requiring construction of 115, 000 subsidized housing units over 10 years. The Corzine administration is refusing to release the report that includes the data that Burchell used in his public presentation, apparently because it contradicts COAH's assertions.
