S 117 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires municipalities to reimburse qualified private communities for street paving costs.

This bill (S 117) requires New Jersey municipalities to either pave or reimburse qualified private communities for road improvements on streets that are dedicated to public use or meet municipal standards. It applies specifically to services like paving, snow removal, street lighting (electricity costs only), and waste collection along qualifying roads. Municipalities must choose between performing these services directly or providing full reimbursement, with a budget cap to prevent exceeding allocated funds. The bill directly affects municipalities and private communities with roads meeting the defined criteria.
