A 3907 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes expedited construction plan review program.

This bill establishes a program allowing construction project owners in New Jersey to opt for expedited plan reviews under the state's construction code. Owners may choose to use a licensed private plan review agency (instead of their local municipality's agency) for a $500 premium fee per review subcode, with reviews required to be completed within 10 days if plans meet code standards. Municipalities retain final authority over permits and must oversee projects using private reviewers. The bill directly affects construction project owners, local enforcing agencies, and private plan review companies seeking licensure to provide this service.
