Duane Morris LLP partner Paul Josephson of the firm’s Cherry Hill office has been appointed New Jersey Committee co-chair and to the board of directors of the Regional Plan Association (RPA). The RPA is the leading urban research and advocacy organization that works to improve the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut metropolitan region’s economic health, environmental sustainability and quality of life through research, planning and advocacy. RPA’s committees — comprised of civic, community and business leaders — provide key strategic advice to the organization. Josephson will co-chair the New Jersey Committee with former New Jersey Governor James J. Florio.

“The RPA’s history of accomplishment for nearly 100 years has left the tri-state region markedly better than it otherwise would have been,” said Josephson. “By providing civic and business leaders with unbiased research and advice, and responsible advocacy, RPA’s positive influence on the development of our region has been remarkable. As the RPA prepares to roll out its fourth regional plan over the next year, I am honored to have been asked by its board to help promote our region’s plans and infrastructure for the next century.”
