✓ Decided: Randolph council approves amended Fair Share housing agreement (6-0)
The Randolph Township Council voted 6-0 to rescind Resolution 285-25 and authorize an amended mediation agreement with the Fair Share Housing Center on the township's fourth round housing obligation. The amendments, negotiated by Township Attorney Buzak, limit rehabilitation requirements to what regulations require at the time of extension and address financial obligations tied to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, providing that any shortfall in extensions reverts to unmet need rather than requiring one-for-one replacement. Councilwoman Elbaum was absent. The meeting adjourned at 9:44 a.m.
