DescriptionThis report represents the culmination of an extensive research effort into the institutional and statutory framework within which local redevelopment activities are undertaken in New Jersey. As a result of the findings of this study, the Commission is recommending a complete restructuring of New Jersey's current local redevelopment enabling laws, including the Local Housing Authorities Law, the Redevelopment Agencies Law, and the Blighted Areas Act, as well as the various local property tax exemption and abatement statutes, including the Fox-Lance Act.
The Commission recommendations, as contained in this report, represent the most significant change in local enabling law since the enactment of the Municipal Land Use Law in 1975. Even so, the Commission recognizes that this is only one element of a comprehensive response to the needs of communities that are in need of redevelopment. Statutory authority alone will not ensure the redevelopment of New Jersey's distressed communities. New Jersey's State and local governments must continue to develop new and innovative ways to attract investment into the state's urban centers and distressed communities.
