Overview
This bill allows New Jersey municipalities with ‘lagoon communities’ – residential developments accessible by boat – to authorize and finance the dredging of waterways within those communities. Municipalities can hire certified professionals to dredge these waterways for maintenance or restoration, and they can pay for the dredging through a special assessment on property owners or by issuing bonds. The bill defines a ‘lagoon community’ as a coastal residential area where waterways serve as roadways.
