# Jersey City Planning Board Meeting October 13, 2026

The Jersey City Planning Board meeting on October 13, 2026, considered a master plan re-examination and several land-use applications. The board voted to find the revision to the Historic Preservation Element consistent with the master plan and recommend that City Council adopt the inventory of Black heritage buildings and sites, identifying 43 sites. City staff said Hunter Research had been engaged in late 2024 to conduct the historical survey; no new contract award, purchase, or spending decision was discussed. The board approved a four-unit residential project at 34 Leilaw Avenue, subject to staff conditions including a change from vinyl to fiber-cement siding. An application for a four-unit conversion at 35 Wegman Parkway was carried to a date uncertain after a parking variance was identified that had not been included in the notice.
