Requires DCA to establish optional certification courses for planning professionals on development of warehouses and high-density buildings.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to create optional certification courses for planning professionals focused on developing warehouses and high-density buildings. The courses, to be developed with input from universities, planning commissions, and organizations like the New Jersey Planning Officials, must include specific modules on warehouse (defined as storage facilities for goods) and high-density development topics. Completion of these courses does not satisfy existing land use law training requirements for planning board members. The bill directly affects planning professionals involved in zoning and development decisions, aiming to provide updated expertise on rapidly growing development types.
