Passaic Re-Examination Report of the Master Plan

This report tackles several Smart Surface interventions. For road, sewer and stormwater infrastructure, it outlines sustainable practices suggested to improve stormwater mitigation and groundwater recharge, such as retention ponds and green infrastructure. Additionally, it recommends pairing solar with EV infrastructure. It also touches on the impact of urban heat islands in the City and considers sustainable building designs and consistent enforcement codes and regulations for new construction to help increase utility demands during extreme heat events.
