On Friday, November 7, Jennifer Gray participated in the “SEQRA 50th Anniversary Conference” at Albany Law School by moderating a panel discussion How the SEQRA process should change moving forward. The conference marks half a century since the enactment of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), a landmark piece of legislation that has profoundly impacted land use and environmental protection across the state and will reflect on SEQRA’s historical influence and envision its future directions, bringing together experts, practitioners, and policymakers to discuss environmental challenges and a changing regulatory landscape.
Jennifer Gray’s practice is devoted to the areas of planning and zoning, and litigation pertaining to land use, municipal and real estate matters. She serves as counsel to several local planning and zoning boards where she advises the boards on various issues related to compliance with state and local procedural requirements, as well as compliance with SEQRA. Ms. Gray’s litigation experience includes challenges to land use determinations of municipal boards, including matters related to SEQRA compliance, and other matters pertaining to real property such as adverse possession, easements and title issues.
