S 4951 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prohibits municipalities from requiring certain plan approval related to addition of up to five van accessible parking spaces to existing parking facilities.

This bill (S 4951) prohibits New Jersey municipalities from requiring site plan approvals for adding up to five van accessible parking spaces to existing commercial parking facilities. It directly affects commercial property owners seeking to improve accessibility without bureaucratic delays. The key provision exempts these minor modifications from needing municipal approval, provided the spaces meet the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. This change streamlines the process for adding accessible parking in commercial zones without altering existing accessibility requirements.
