Establishes "Missing Middle Homes for All Pilot Program" to facilitate development of pre-permitted home designs; appropriates $2 million.
This bill creates the "Missing Middle Homes for All Pilot Program" to help New Jersey address housing shortages by developing pre-approved home designs that middle-income families can afford. The program, which receives a $2 million appropriation, will be managed by the Department of Community Affairs to produce ready-to-build plans that municipalities can adopt to speed up construction and lower costs. It specifically targets households earning between 80 and 120 percent of the median income, a group often excluded from current housing assistance, and sets up a process for public input and municipal applications to select participating towns. The initiative is designed to run for ten years, with the goal of increasing the supply of small-scale homes that meet affordability standards for moderate and low-income residents as well.
