Proposal

New Jersey’s State Senate has advanced legislation that would set aside $100 million for tenants that are struggling to pay their rents during the coronavirus pandemic.

A proposal that’s heading to Jersey City’s planning board would preserve and expand the existing church building and construct a new homeless shelter across the street.

Two community associations have penned a letter opposing the 2,360-unit plan, while two other groups support the proposal due to affordable housing and public benefits that are included.

A new two-story building housing Engine 10 & Ladder 12 is being planned for a neighborhood that has seen plenty of development over the last few years.

The company is looking to bring a 14-story development to several parcels near the Jersey City border, which would be the first hotel built away from the Mile Square City’s waterfront.

A property tucked underneath the Palisades could be home to a 340-unit development that’s along the city’s rapidly developing border with Hoboken.

While two ordinances designed to curb the “night-club driven entertainment district” along Newark Avenue didn’t move forward, an informal committee will now meet to discuss possible changes.

In preparation for the state possibly legalizing the drug, the city council is looking to limit neighborhoods where pot shops could open in Hoboken.

A group of lots along Sip Avenue and surrounding blocks could be the site of a new Coptic Orthodox church.

The planning board will be taking additional testimony later this month on the 344-unit project, which has several hurdles to clear before moving forward.
