Property taxes in New Jersey are some of the highest in the nation, due in large part to the way the state funds its schools. This has significant land-use consequences: municipalities want higher-income residents in houses on larger lots because they cost less and bring fewer schoolchildren, and they want commercial development because the tax revenues are higher and the municipal costs are lower. These problems can be addressed by expanding the geography over which a school district has jurisdiction, so that costs and taxation are distributed more evenly.

The dramatic increase in the number of recent flooding incidents in New Jersey raises important questions about where development should occur and how to plan and prepare for these events. As floodplain maps change, so do regulatory and design considerations, not to mention the added insurance risks to redeveloping in these locations. This session will look at current weather trends and how they will affect redeveloping communities, as well as explore innovative approaches to stormwater management, with a spotlight on Philadelphia’s Green Infrastructure Plan.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

4. Basic Property Tax Facts
• Schools represent the bulk of local
government expenditures
• Residential development doesn’t pay for
itself, unless it’s age-restricted
– RESULT: Nobody wants kids
• Wealthy residents demand fewer services
than poorer ones
– RESULT: Large lots encouraged; multi-family
housing discouraged
• Commercial development does pay for itself
– RESULT: Every municipality wants to be Teterboro
5. Over-Reliance on Property Tax :
Why Is This a Land-Use Issue?
• Incentive to zone out children [keep
out housing if you can]
• Large-lot/exclusionary zoning [keep
out people who can’t pay their own way]
• Competition for commercial
development (the “ratables chase”)
[generate revenue without school costs by
attracting malls and office parks]
6. Over-Reliance on Property Tax :
The Consequences
• Downward spiral of disinvestment, wherein
a declining tax base causes tax rates to rise, which then
chases away the more prosperous residents and
businesses, further depleting the tax base and leaving
behind the neediest residents most in need of
government services, necessitating another tax rate
increase etc.
• This creates a high-stakes system of winners and losers
7. Is It Really a Property Tax Problem?
Many of the land-use side effects of the property tax
system are actually more properly ascribed to NJ’s
fragmented system of local governance
From a land-use perspective, tax reform might better be
accomplished by increasing the geographic size of the
units of competition:
– Tax base sharing
– Municipal consolidation
– Regional school districts
