Expands definition of qualifying municipality for purposes of urban aid under P.L.1978, c.14.
This bill (S 3395) expands the definition of "qualifying municipality" for receiving urban aid under New Jersey's 1978 urban aid law. It modifies eligibility criteria by adjusting thresholds related to property tax metrics, population density, and publicly financed housing requirements. Municipalities that previously did not meet the old standards - such as some with higher population density or specific housing characteristics - may now qualify for aid. The change directly affects local governments seeking state urban aid funding, potentially increasing the number of eligible municipalities under the program.
