Questions & Answers

1. What are your thoughts on land use and development for vacant land in Newark, especially in Areas 3 and 4?

I'd like Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Strategies to be incorporated into the Land Use Plan for Areas 3 and 4. TOD brings more retail, jobs, and easy to use streets and sidewalks. With more residents living and working in these areas, it will be a more vibrant and inviting place. Public transit will be a better alternative and it will provide daily transportation needs. Ensuring we also have Open Space and Wetland Protection is also an important component of my Plan.
