Abstract: Proposed amici curiae New Jersey State Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People ("NAACP NJ") and Latino Action Network ("LAN"), on behalf of their members, submit this brief in support of the parties challenging N.J.A.C. 5:96 and 5:97. Amici NAACP NJ and LAN respectfully urge this Court to reject the regulations of Council on Affordable Housing ("COAH"), and specifically their use of a "growth share" methodology, as insufficient to ensure that the Mount Laurel doctrine and the New Jersey Fair Housing Act of 1985, N.J.S.A. 52:27D-301 to -329, will in fact open communities of opportunity in New Jersey to those, such as African Americans and Latinos, who are currently excluded from them.
