Establishes pilot program in Office of Planning Advocacy to reimburse municipalities for certain expenditures concerning warehouse development; appropriates $1 million.
This bill establishes a $1 million pilot program to reimburse New Jersey municipalities for costs related to updating zoning rules for warehouse development. Municipalities can get reimbursed for reexamining master plans, adopting warehouse-specific zoning ordinances, or conducting studies on potential impacts like traffic or infrastructure strain. To qualify, municipalities must adopt ordinances aligned with state guidance and a model ordinance developed by the Office of Planning Advocacy. The program expires after a final report evaluates its effectiveness and fund usage.
