Overview
This bill establishes the ‘Security Deposit Assistance Pilot Program’ in nine New Jersey counties – Passaic, Union, Essex, Hudson, Gloucester, Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, and Mercer. It aims to help low-income households pay security deposits for rental housing by creating a dedicated fund and providing reimbursement to landlords for tenant lease violations. The program would operate for at least three years and prioritize households eligible for ‘very low income housing.’
