Proposes constitutional amendment to require Statewide calculation of affordable housing obligation.
ACR 47 proposes a constitutional amendment to change how New Jersey municipalities calculate their affordable housing obligations. Currently, these obligations are based on regional housing needs; this amendment would require the Legislature to establish a single statewide calculation for all affordable housing needs instead. Municipalities would no longer need to meet regional targets but would instead be bound by a statewide requirement for affordable housing units. The amendment would take effect only if approved by voters in the next general election following legislative passage.
