In New Jersey, a dispute over sewer access has emerged between towns in Bergen County, delaying AvalonBay Communities' redevelopment project of an abandoned office park into over 200 apartments, including affordable and supportive housing units. Despite approvals secured nine months ago, the project hinges on Allendale's consent to use its sewer system, which has not been granted, leading AvalonBay to take legal action. The situation underscores the state's ongoing affordable housing crisis and the urgent need for increased housing solutions.
