Establishes "New Jersey Eviction Crisis Task Force."
S 4179 establishes the New Jersey Eviction Crisis Task Force to study the state's eviction challenges. The 23-member task force includes government officials, legislative representatives, legal experts, and community advocates from groups like the New Jersey Tenants Organization and Legal Services of New Jersey. It will examine eviction causes, impacts on renters and landlords, legal assistance gaps, and potential policy solutions, with a focus on affordable housing and homelessness connections. The task force must submit findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within 18 months of its formation. This bill creates a study group only - no immediate policy changes are enacted.
