S 107 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Prohibits the imposition of affordable housing need and related fees upon the local transfer or move of a business.

S 107 prevents municipalities and the Council on Affordable Housing from counting the relocation of commercial or industrial businesses within a municipality, same housing region, or a 50-mile radius as generating a requirement for affordable housing. It directly stops local governments from imposing affordable housing fees on developers moving businesses under these conditions. The bill amends the Fair Housing Act to block regulations that would treat business relocations as increasing a municipality's affordable housing obligation. This policy change affects businesses relocating within New Jersey communities and the fees municipalities could previously charge. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
