Overview
This bill prevents self-storage facilities in New Jersey from charging late fees or other penalties to customers who are paying with vouchers issued through programs like Work First New Jersey. Specifically, it prohibits these fees when the delay in payment is due to the issuing authority of the voucher. Violations can result in a $1,000 civil penalty for a first offense, and potentially higher penalties for subsequent offenses, including cease and desist orders and treble damages.
