Bill overview
This bill removes an exemption that allows certain urban aid municipalities to avoid fair share housing obligations in New Jersey. Currently, these municipalities are exempt if they meet specific criteria related to substandard housing, population density, or vacant land. This bill would eliminate this exemption, applying the same fair share obligations to all municipalities regardless of their urban aid status, starting with future rounds of affordable housing obligations. It also impacts the use of municipal development fees for affordable housing projects.
