Ethical & Professional Considerations for the Development Community
Thursday, March 26th
2:00 pm - 3:45 pm
Room: 320
The panelists will discuss the applicability of disclosure and recusal requirements for attorneys, engineers and planners as well as local officials in the context of the local approval process. The session would outline the applicable rules and standard of care for the professionals, highlight recent decisions, present screening techniques to attempt to identify conflicts early in the process, and utilize case studies and/or hypotheticals. For example, a common situation often faced by NJBA members are accusations by environmentalists and "NIMBYs" targeting the professionals and their work products in support of a development application. The materials will also include a discussion on the ramifications to the applicant if the disclosure process fails.
