Delays fourth round of affordable housing obligations, including present and prospective need and related litigation, until July 1, 2028.
This bill delays New Jersey's fourth round of municipal affordable housing obligations - including setting regional needs and related litigation - until July 1, 2028, instead of the original 2025 start date. It directly affects municipalities required to meet fair-share affordable housing quotas under the Mount Laurel doctrine. The delay allows time to analyze data from the third round (ending July 2025) before establishing new obligations. The bill explicitly states it does not impact existing court judgments or settlements related to housing obligations finalized before July 1, 2025, and expires on June 30, 2028.
