AN ACT REMOVING CERTAIN NOTICE PROVISIONS CONCERNING REPEAT BLIGHT VIOLATIONS.

SB 628 removes the requirement for municipalities to provide notice and a remediation opportunity to property owners when a blight violation occurs for the second or subsequent time on the same property. This bill directly affects property owners with repeated blight violations, streamlining enforcement for municipalities. The key mechanism amends a statute to eliminate the notice and remediation step for repeat offenses, allowing immediate action against persistent blight conditions. The change aims to strengthen local anti-blight enforcement authority without altering penalties for violations.
