Extends county-based real property assessment program to Passaic County.
This bill extends New Jersey's county-based real property assessment pilot program to include Passaic County, adding it to the existing pilot county (Gloucester). It requires Passaic County to appoint a full-time county assessor with specific qualifications, and mandates that all municipalities within Passaic complete property revaluations within three years. The county covers initial revaluation costs, with the state reimbursing Passaic over three years using existing state funds. This directly affects Passaic County residents through property tax assessments and shifts responsibility for assessment appeals from municipalities to the county.
