Establishes EDA grant program to support increased business expenses incurred by certain businesses impacted by certain public highway projects; appropriates $1 million.
This bill establishes a $1 million grant program through New Jersey's Economic Development Authority (EDA) to reimburse small retail businesses (≤50 employees) for increased operating costs caused by public highway projects. It directly helps businesses located in "impacted construction zones" where highway work blocks traffic or access, covering expenses like lost sales during the project's "relief period" (from start to completion). To qualify, businesses must document their normal pre-project costs and show the difference during the project, with grants covering the incremental expense. The EDA will administer the program using the $1 million appropriation, reviewing applications on a rolling basis as funds allow.
