Provides that fines for municipal housing or zoning code violations may be imposed by municipality each day violation continues.
This bill allows New Jersey municipalities to impose fines for housing or zoning code violations on a daily basis until the violation is resolved. It directly affects property owners who fail to comply with local housing or zoning regulations. The key provision amends existing law to clarify that fines may be charged per day the violation continues, after a 30-day cure period for fines exceeding $1,250. This change validates prior daily fines and ensures municipalities can enforce ongoing compliance without requiring separate penalties for each day.
