A 5831 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes consumer-facing portal for elevator maintenance for owners of certain buildings to provide information on elevator servicer; requires certain signage; requires DCA to establish senior housing elevator maintenance loan program.

This bill requires owners of apartment buildings and other Group R-2 structures to display clear signs at elevator entrances showing the maintenance company's contact details and the elevator's unique ID number. It mandates the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to create a public online portal listing elevator inspection records, safety status, and maintenance history for consumer access. The bill also directs DCA to establish a low-interest loan program specifically for senior housing owners to cover elevator maintenance costs. Failure to post the required signage results in fines starting at $100 for the first offense, increasing to $1,000 for repeated violations.
