History of NJASLA

Advocacy

NJASLA has been instrumental in advocating for the rights of Landscape Architects in New Jersey. In 2008, we successfully petitioned the New Jersey State Legislature to adopt new legislation, recognizing the important role Landscape Architects play in providing environmentally responsible places and spaces. In 2013, we also achieved adopted regulation to enforce the practice provisions of the 2008 legislation, allowing Landscape Architects to propose the location of buildings and their relationship to the site and immediate environs.
