the township of marlboro master plan reexamination report - july 2012 Water The majority of the Township is serviced with potable water. Approximately 60% of the Township is served by Marlboro Township Division of Water Utility and the remaining portion is serviced by Gordon’s Corner Water Company. The Township dissolved the Marlboro Utilities Authority in December 2009 and created the Division of Water Utility within the Township Department of Public Works. The Division assumed all the services previously operated by the Utility. Affordable Housing The Township adopted a Housing Element/Fair Share Plan on December 17, 2008 and filed a petition under protest with COAH for substantative certification. At that time, the Township had a fair share obligation of 1,673 units before exclusions. The Township subsequently adopted an amended Fair Share Plan in July 2010. The Township affordable housing startgey in both Plans was to focus on existing disturbed sites with respect to affordable housing. Minimizing the use of “Greenfield” sites was reinforced through the visioning process as well as limiting the number of “new roofs” in the Township. The Township is currently involved in litigation regarding affordable housing. Economic Development The Economic Development Committee has been working with local businesses to stimulate local economic development. One initiative has been the “Shop Marlboro” campaign. Started in 2010, it is a public relations effort targeted to residents to shop at businesses in Marlboro. Discounts and other incentives are part of the program. Sustainability The Town established a “Green Team” which is composed of residents. The purpose of the Team is to identify actions that can be implemented so that the Township becomes a green sustainable community. In 2010, the Township attained Sustainable Jersey certification. The Township recently received a Sustainable NJ grant in order to implement the Village Center. problems and objectives - Extent of change IV - 8
