Overview
The New Jersey Bleacher Safety Act aims to improve safety at places of public accommodation with bleachers by requiring upgrades to existing structures. It directs the Commissioner of Community Affairs to develop and implement safety standards for existing bleachers, drawing on guidelines from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The bill mandates that governmental, private, and nonprofit entities upgrade their bleachers within specific timeframes, and requires posting warning notices until compliance is achieved. Failure to comply will result in the prohibition of use.
