The law defines "qualified businesses" as those employing residents, long-term unemployed individuals, or low-income workers within the zone, while also outlining rules for community organizations and development plans. Ultimately, this measure aims to attract investment and create jobs in Hackensack by leveraging existing state frameworks for economic revitalization.
