The Starting Point: Structuring Newark's Land use Laws at the Outset of Redevelopment to Promote Integration without Displacement

Malina Welman. Columbia Journal of Law and Social Problems 53, no. 1, Fall, 2019, pp. 43-87.

"In 2017, New Jersey's largest municipality, Newark, made history when its city council passed an inclusionary zoning ordinance requiring, in part, that at least twenty percent of new residential projects be set aside for moderate- and low-income households. By placing affordability at the forefront of its concerns, Newark has thus demonstrated its commitment to equitable growth, but this Note principally argues that in isolation, the inclusionary zoning ordinance is more symbolic than it is effective upon analyzing its terms.
