This symposium focused on three current, important topics in zoning and land use law.
These three areas are the subject of dynamic change in the field: the impact of environmental concerns and Mayor Bloomberg’s PlaNYC on new development regulations – such as new requirements for parking lot greening, street tree planting, LEED certification and storm water run-off mitigation requirements; the current status of changes to the 421-a incentive program and their effect on development; and the regulatory issues particularly effecting development in Brooklyn and Queens, including community benefit agreements. Speakers included private practitioners and government representatives to provide both public and private perspectives on these changes.
