Planner License No December 26, 2013

2 -1- INTRODUCTION On December 3, 2013 Ridgewood Village Planner Blais Brancheau presented a draft Amendment to Land Use Plan Element of the Village of Ridgewood Master Plan which analyzed four potential inclusionary housing projects for consideration by the Planning Board. The project proposed by K & K Developers, Inc. is known as The Dayton and is recommended in the draft plan amendment for an AH-2 designation. This Planning Memorandum summarizes the planning considerations supportive of the multifamily development that have been presented to the Planning Board over the past two years. It has been prepared on behalf of the developer with the intent of highlighting the land use planning advantages of multifamily housing at this location. K & K Developers, Inc. proposes to redevelop the Brogan Cadillac property and the adjacent automotive servicing building to the south with a multifamily residential building consisting of approximately 106 rental apartments. The site encompasses 2.67 acres yielding a density of 39.7 units per acre. The Dayton will have Ridgewood s signature Tudor design, will reserve 10% of its units as affordable housing, and will provide on-site parking at a ratio of 1.75 spaces per unit. This Summary Planning Evaluation is intended to assist the Mayor, Village Council and the Planning Board in assessing the merits of the proposal with the anticipation that the Village Master Plan will be amended and that subsequently the Land Use and Development Ordinance would be amended permitting a future site plan application to the Ridgewood Planning Board for The Dayton. PLATE I GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE DAYTON

3 -2- BACKGROUND INFORMATION The closure of Brogan Cadillac on South Broad Street in the Village of Ridgewood created an opportunity to redevelop the site with a downtown compatible use. Responding to this situation, K & K Developers negotiated an agreement with the property owner to redevelop the site for multifamily housing and authorized the preparation of supporting conceptual plans and studies. This Summary Planning Evaluation is one of those studies. Initially only the 2.44 acre Brogan Cadillac site was proposed for redevelopment. But as the planning process progressed, K & K Developers was able to contract for the abutting automotive property at 152 South Broad Street and respond to preliminary comments offered by the Planning Board and the Village Planner. While increasing the site to 2.67 acres and creating a more regular shape, K & K Developers lowered the number of apartment units to 106 units, increased the parking ratio, and added to the variety of unit types by including dens and lofts. The entire site is in the B-2 Retail Business District which is a commercial zone permitting residential use only above first floor businesses. This Summary Planning Evaluation is offered in support of an eventual amendment to the Zoning Chapter of Ridgewood s Land Use and Development Code that would permit multifamily units without ground floor businesses and with a density and dimensional standards commensurate with this prime location. Such an amendment requires legislative action by the Village Council and a referral to the Planning Board. With a supportive amendment to the Village Master Plan, the Village Council is then able to amend its Land Use and Development Code creating a new AH-2 Zone for the subject site with the planning rationale already in place. LOCATION OF THE BROGAN CADILLAC SITE The subject site is located on the west side of South Broad Street approximately 600 feet south of East Ridgewood Avenue and backs up to the railroad as shown below. PLATE II LOCATION OF SUBJECT PROPERTY

4 -3- The aerial photograph on Plate II depicts the existing site conditions as well as the surrounding area. The Brogan property and the adjacent automotive property are completely covered by buildings and pavement. Although the Brogan property is no longer in use as an auto dealership, the existing parking area (approximately 75 spaces) is used for commuter parking. To the north is Columbia Savings. To the east and across South Broad Street are the Montessori Academy of Ridgewood and the New York Sports Club. To the south are offices followed by a three-story apartment building. To the west are the Conrail railroad tracks. Further to the north is the Ridgewood train station at a distance of approximately 1,000 feet. DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT Although only at the conceptual design stage, plans for The Dayton have been prepared to convey the type and scale of multifamily development sought to be accommodated by the rezoning. Proposed is a building of Tudor design compatible with the architecture of many buildings in the downtown. A total of approximately 106 dwelling units are proposed distributed over four floors with parking located underneath. Ten percent of the units are to be reserved for low and moderate-income residents. These Mt. Laurel units are to be distributed throughout the building and architecturally treated so that the exteriors are indistinguishable from market rate units. The resultant density is 39.7 dwelling units per acre. The building would be positioned toward the front of the site as is typical in a downtown setting. Plate III shows a perspective view and Plate IV shows the front facade. Parking both under the building and extending to the rear would be accessed via two driveways on South Broad Street. On-site parking would be at a ratio of 1.75 spaces per dwelling unit. PLATE III CONCEPTUAL PLAN FOR THE DAYTON

5 -4- PLATE IV PROPOSED FRONT FAÇADE OF THE DAYTON As currently envisioned, the 106 units would include 41 one-bedroom units, 62 two-bedroom units, and 3 three-bedroom units as detailed in Table 1. Each unit would have its own separate utility services making the building eligible for condominium ownership. However, owing to the terms of the contract with The Brogan Co. and to real estate market conditions, the units are initially to be offered on a rental basis with subsequent evaluation as a condominium project as market conditions evolve. Table 1 Distribution of Dwelling Units Unit Type Market Rate Units Mt. Laurel Units Total Units 1 Bedroom Bedroom Bedroom Total The project is to be marketed to the book ends segments of the population: younger individuals and couples at the one end and at the other end seniors who wish to retain their roots in Ridgewood. It is also expected that proximity to the Ridgewood train station and to the restaurants and other retail uses and services in the downtown will prove to be strong determinants of future occupancy. Overall, the project represents the introduction of well-designed, conveniently located dwelling units with elevator access, on-site parking, and lobby services in an under-represented segment of Ridgewood s downtown land use mix. The viability of the project is strengthened by its close proximity to the Ridgewood train station and the restaurants, retail uses and services found in the Village s downtown. A sampling of other multifamily buildings in Ridgewood culled for the purpose of market analysis is included in Appendix A. The projects included in the sample support the conclusion that The Dayton will expand the housing choices currently available rather than duplicate elements of the existing housing stock.

6 -4- ZONING CONSIDERATIONS The subject site is currently located in Ridgewood s B-2 Retail Business District as shown on Plate V. The B-2 District allows retail sales and services, financial institutions, offices, clubs, tradesman shops, furniture movers, job printing plants, child care centers, surface parking lots and Dwelling units on other than the ground floor or basement. In the B-2 District, the following dimensional standards apply to permitted uses: Maximum building height: Minimum front yard: Minimum side yard: Minimum rear yard: Maximum floor area: Maximum improvement coverage: 45 feet Match adjacent buildings 0 or 12 feet 10 feet or ½ building height 45% of lot area 90% of lot area The existing B-2 District provisions also include incentives for projects with a low and moderate-income housing component. As incentives, the B-2 Zone permits an enhanced building height of 50 feet and an enhanced floor area of 60% of the lot area. PLATE V EXISTING ZONING

7 -5- By way of history, the Brogan site was part of a larger area considered for inclusionary zoning by the Village of Ridgewood in early Although ultimately rejected, proposed Ordinance No sought to create two new affordable housing districts in addition to proposing certain height and floor area ratio bonuses in the B-1 and B-2 Retail Business Districts. As shown on Plate VI, Ordinance No sought to create the AH-2 and AH-3 Affordable Housing Districts with the subject site being included as part of the proposed AH-3 District. PLATE VI AH-2 AND AH-3 ZONES IN ORDINANCE NO As drafted, both the AH-2 and AH-3 Zones would have accommodated multifamily dwelling units either in a purely residential building or in a mixed-use building. Densities of up to 23.2 dwelling units per acre and 25.5 units per acre would have been permitted for affordable owner-occupied units or for rental units respectively. In the AH- 2 Zone, a 16.7% affordable housing component was required, and in the AH-3 Zone, a 25% affordable housing component was required. However, with the decision not to adopt Ordinance No. 3291, the subject site remained in the B-2 Zone.

8 -6- EXISTING MASTER PLAN AND REEXAMINATION REPORT CONSIDERATIONS The most recent planning policy document is the Housing Element of the Village of Ridgewood Master Plan and Fair Share Plan adopted by the Planning Board on December 16, Having assumed continuation of the New Jersey Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) and its third round rules covering the period from 2004 to 2018, the 2008 Plan offered proposals to address Ridgewood s constitutional obligation to zone for low and moderate income housing. Included in the Fair Share Plan was the subject site along with several adjacent properties totaling 3.4 acres. This area was selected because of its location near the central business district and mass transit (passenger rail and bus) facilities, as well as the interest recently expressed by several developers for housing at the site. The proximity to the CBD will allow the density to more easily be accommodated, provide convenient shopping for site residents as well as a boost to the CBD retail market. The proximity of the mass transit facilities will reduce traffic from the site during peak commuting hours. All of the foregoing is consistent with transit-oriented development studies that are ongoing with the Planning Board. [Page 8] Leading up to the selection of the subject site as part of an inclusionary housing site is the 2008 Fair Share Plan s assessment of Ridgewood s housing market. As stated in the Fair Share Plan: Trends in household size, however, indicate that new housing units need not be as large as previously, at least from a practical perspective. Market demand exists for larger homes, however, despite the smaller household sizes. The projected increase in the number of senior citizens suggests a continuing need for housing units suitable for persons of this age group. These units generally are smaller than average, are conveniently located near shopping areas and services, require less maintenance and are lower in cost. The ability to adapt to these needs is severely limited, however, by the shortage of developable land in the Village and other factors. [Page 3] Prior to the 2008 Fair Share Plan, the Planning Board adopted a February 7, 2006 Reexamination of the Master Plan and Development Regulations which affirmed portions of the earlier 1983 Master Plan. The 2006 Reexamination Report considered the review of Ridgewood s housing plan element a high priority anticipating new state regulations concerning affordable housing. Moreover, in assessing Ridgewood s major problems and objectives relating to land development, the 2006 Reexamination Report stated on page 10 that The Village s master plan currently seeks as a policy to provide a wide range of housing types and densities. This objective remains valid. Finally, it is noted that the New Jersey Supreme Court has recently invalidated the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) regulations for Round Three and has directed to COAH to craft new standards. Despite this delay, it is noteworthy that municipal affordable housing responsibilities remain a constitutional responsibility and will not disappear.

9 -7- PROPOSED MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT FOR DISCUSSION The December 2013 Ridgewood Master Plan Amendment drafted by Planner Brancheau for consideration by the Planning Board presented a sample recommendation for a new AH-2 Land Use Plan designation that would apply solely to the subject property. Replacing the existing B-2 Retail Business District recommendation for the subject site, the new AH-2 designation would accommodate commercial uses with regulations similar to those in the existing B-2 Zone and would also allow inclusionary multifamily housing with the following lot, bulk and intensity of use standards:

10 -8- PROCEDURAL CONSIDERATIONS The procedural steps involved with creating a new zone typically include the following: 1. An amendment to the Land Use Element and Housing Element of the Ridgewood Master Plan in support of the proposed rezoning is drafted. 2. The Planning Board conducts an advertised public hearing on the Master Plan amendment and adopts the amendment. Upon adoption, a copy is send to the Bergen County Planning Board. 3. An ordinance amending the Zoning Chapter of the Village Code is introduced by the Village Council and sent to the Planning Board. Following introduction, the proposed ordinance and the upcoming Village Council public hearing are advertised in the official newspaper and the Village Clerk sends notices by regular mail and by certified mail to property owners within the area to be rezoned and to property owners within 200 feet of the area to be rezoned. 4. Following introduction, the amending ordinance is referred to the Planning Board for its (1) determination of whether or not the ordinance amendment is substantially consistent with the Land Use Element and Housing Element of the Master Plan and for (2) a recommendation as to whether the Village Council should adopt the ordinance amendment. 5. The Village Council at second reading holds an advertised public hearing and, upon receiving public comments, the Village Council considers adoption of the zoning amendment. 6. If adopted by the Village Council, the legislative action is advertised in the official newspaper and a copy of the zoning amendment is sent to the Bergen County Planning Board whereupon it becomes effective. 7. The developer then files an application with the Ridgewood Planning Board for preliminary and final site plan approval and Village professionals review the application. 8. At a public meeting, the Planning Board entertains the application and considers granting preliminary and final site plan approval. 9. Upon approval by the Planning Board and upon issuance of Construction Code Permits, construction of The Dayton commences.

11 -8- PLANNING MERITS OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT From a land use planning perspective, the following aspects of the proposed residential project are offered as supporting an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance and to the Ridgewood Master Plan: 1. Encouraging the most appropriate use of land. A 2.67 site in an established downtown setting within walking distance to train and bus services is a highly valuable resource. Being slightly outside of the retail core, the site is not positioned for successful ground floor retail use and is not appropriate for a highway-oriented use such as an auto dealership. The site is appropriate for multifamily residential use oriented to single-person households or couples either before or after their child-rearing years. The policy statements in Ridgewood s existing Master Plan confirm these site attributes. 2. Expanding the range of housing choices There are few higher-end residential units in Ridgewood s downtown. The proposal includes on-site parking, elevator service, and well-designed dwelling units in a handsome building. This housing product represent a choice for residents that does not currently exist thus responding to the Master Plan s objective of promoting a wide range of housing types and densities. 3. Supporting the Village downtown In addition to expanding housing choices, the introduction of additional households in proximity to the downtown adds new customers who are likely to utilize the goods and services offered in the Village. The health club across the street and the businesses on South Broad Street on route to the train station would benefit greatly. The other sections of the downtown would also be likely to garner new customers. 4. Aesthetic improvement Aside from its function as a housing resource, a dramatic visual change would result from approval of the project. The dominant feature of the existing site is surface parking. As proposed, the parking would either be under the building and shielded by the front façade or in the rear of the building. The structure itself would be of a Tudor style that is the signature style of Ridgewood s downtown. 5. Low impact land use Modern multifamily housing in a downtown setting is recognized as generating minimal land use impacts. From a traffic viewpoint, the automobile trips produced would be less than certain permitted commercial uses. Moreover, the design of the building and the site, the marketing focus of the developer, and the location in a transit village setting strongly suggest that the demand for public services would be minimal.

12 -9- Although each community has its own unique characteristics, demographic studies geared to New Jersey suggest that the number of public school age children associated with the project would be relatively small. The November 2006 publication Who Lives in New Jersey Housing? offers demographic multipliers predicting the total population and the likely number of public school age children*. For above-median value multifamily rental housing, the proposed bedroom mix of 106 dwelling units is predicted to accommodate a total of 208 persons, 11 of whom would be public school attendees. If considered a transitoriented development, the predicted number of public school attendees would be less than three students. The Ridgewood Board of Education culled information on public school children residing in multifamily developments in the Village. A total of 219 public school students was documented for the 835 apartment units regardless of the type of structure. Of significance is the result of disaggregating the data based on garden apartments versus non-garden apartment developments. A disaggregation of the data as displayed in Appendix B indicates that the experience for non-garden apartments in Ridgewood (which would include projects like The Dayton) is one school age child for every 16 dwelling units. Applying this ratio to the 106 unit The Dayton would predict 7 school age children which is in line with the 11 public school students predicted earlier. It is noted that a different ratio is characteristics of garden apartment developments in Ridgewood. The disaggregation of Board of Education data reveals that one school age child is generated for each 2.7 garden apartments in Ridgewood s developments. 6. Positive real estate ratable. Although not a valid consideration in variance proceedings, the economic benefits of certain types of land uses are legitimate factors in evaluating rezoning requests. Multifamily projects such as the subject proposal typically generate tax revenues that on the whole more than compensate for the total of local educational and municipal services associated with the development. In fact, it is fair to state that the municipal service costs per dwelling unit are smaller for new multifamily units compared with single-family detached homes owing to the different occupancy characteristics as well as Ridgewood s land use pattern. The proposed development, for instance, does not result in additional street maintenance costs and has a centralized refuse collection area which are clearly more efficiently serviced than 106 detached single-family homes. Given that that production of real estate ratables is a legitimate planning issue in a rezoning effort, Table 1 on the next page estimates the real estate tax revenues generated by The Dayton using current data. One column assumes an initial offering as a rental project and the second column assumes its possible future conversion into a condominium project. * Who Lives in New Jersey Housing? A Quick Guide to New Jersey Residential Demographic Multipliers by David Listokin, Center for Urban Policy Research, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, November With respect to transit oriented housing, the study surveyed 10 projects in New Jersey representing a total of 2,183 dwelling units and identified only 47 school age children (a ratio of 0.02 public school age children per dwelling unit).

13 -10- For illustrative purposes a value of $350,000 per unit is assumed for rental occupancy yielding a total assessed value of $37,100,000 and a value of $500,000 per unit is assumed for condominium ownership yielding a total assessed value of $53,000,000. At the current time, assessed value in Ridgewood is approximately equal to market value. Table 1 Estimation of Real Estate Tax Revenues Tax rate components: Rate per $100 of assessed value Rental Assessed Annual Payments Condo Assessed Annual Payments Bergen County $87,556 $125,080 Bergen County Open Space $1,113 $1,590 Ridgewood Board of Education $569,485 $813,550 Ridgewood Municipal Services $201,082 $287,260 Ridgewood Library $13,356 $19,080 Ridgewood Open Space $1,484 $2,120 Total $874,076 $1,248,680 SUMMARY OF PLANNING CONCLUSIONS The request of K & K Developers, Inc. for a master plan amendment and a subsequent zoning amendment that would accommodate an inclusionary housing development on the subject site presents a unique planning opportunity. A confluence of attributes makes the site well suited for multifamily use. It is close to the downtown, near mass transit, available for redevelopment and in a land use setting that can accept the scale and intensity proposed. At a time when the real estate market remains compromised but shows beginning signs of vitality, the rezoning request represents a realistic effort to produce an aesthetically pleasing building constructed and managed by an experienced developer. The suitability of the site for multifamily use is not a new determination. Ridgewood s 2008 Housing Element and Fair Share Plan already identified the site for multifamily use, and Ridgewood s 2006 Reexamination Report affirmed the 1983 Master Plan goal of providing a wide range of housing types and densities. In short, the proposed inclusionary housing project makes good planning sense. K & K Developers, Inc. and the members of its team stand ready to provide additional information to assist the Mayor, Village Council and Planning Board in evaluating the merits of the requested master plan amendment and the hoped for rezoning.

14 -11- PRELIMINARY PLANNING COMMENTS ON OCT. 14, 2013 CBR LETTER On behalf of Citizens for a Better Ridgewood, Inc., attorney John Lamb issued an October 14, 2013 letter to the Ridgewood Planning Board offering his opinion as well as presumably the opinions of members of the organization he represents. Awaiting the possible future presentation of some expert testimony, the following preliminary responses are offered for consideration of the Planning Board: A. Attorney Lamb describes the Planning Board as currently considering four mixeduse applications. He is mistaken. The Dayton does not have a nonresidential component and hence is not a mixed-use project. Hence, it is not clear that he actually reviewed The Dayton. B. The letter is essentially an opinion letter. He uses phrases such as in the opinion of CBR, we believe, may be affected, there is a chance, may not generate, it is our opinion and the like. The opinions are apparently offered by Attorney Lamb or by the four named officers and trustees. While certainly the legitimate expressions of at least four residents, the points offered do not constitute the expert opinions of planners or traffic experts. C. The survey of other zones in Bergen County is interesting background information. However, it does not constitute a valid planning analysis of inclusionary housing projects in a downtown setting. His statistical statement that only 13.9% of the towns in Bergen County allow housing densities of 40 or more units per acre illustrates the lack of a legitimate planning analysis. The Village of Ridgewood is unique in its land use configuration and should not be bound by the zoning choices made by elected officials in other municipalities in different land use environments. Attention should be drawn to the middle paragraph on page 11 of his letter wherein he opines that you cannot rely on averages or statistics from other municipalities to predict behavior in a special and unique municipality like Ridgewood. In this instance, however, both state wide data and Ridgewood-specific data are employed to predict a low number of public school attendees. D. The Lamb letter looks to maintain a maximum density of approximately 12 dwelling units per acre. This is not a potent density for inclusionary projects in a downtown setting. It should be kept in mind that a two-family house on a 50 foot by 100 foot lot results in a density of 17.4 units per acre. E. His rhetorical question Isn t the Village of Ridgewood already fully developed? implies that a vacant automotive dealership on the edge of the downtown is an appropriate use of land. The Brogan Cadillac site will surely be developed in the future given its prime location and size. The pertinent question is what type of development makes sense in this setting. Moreover, his already developed defense was discredited approximately 10 years ago with respect to the Mt. Laurel II decision.
