ACR 89 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Proposes temporary constitutional amendment allowing State constitutional convention convened to reform system of property taxation to propose statutory changes.

ACR 89 proposes a temporary amendment to the New Jersey Constitution that would allow a constitutional convention focused on property tax reform to propose changes to state statutes (such as amending or repealing existing laws) for voter approval, in addition to constitutional amendments. Currently, such a convention could only propose constitutional changes, but this amendment would enable it to suggest statutory adjustments needed to implement tax reforms. The amendment would become part of the Constitution if approved by voters and expire three years after approval. This directly affects the convention's scope and the voting process for statutory proposals related to property tax reform.
