Ted Zangari, a Newark-based real estate and redevelopment attorney, is the head of the Smart Growth Coalition of New Jersey.  The committee met frequently this summer and in the fall to develop a set of recommendations for the incoming governor on maintaining and boosting economic activity in New Jersey.  I was the chairman of the committee responsible for the “making land” portion of the recommendations.  The Smart Growth Coalition in a partnership with NAIOP hosted a conference highlighting all the recommendations on December 5th.
