Provides for increase in relocation assistance amounts based on increase of CPI.
This bill increases relocation assistance payments for people displaced by public projects in New Jersey. It sets specific phased increases for moving expenses, dislocation allowances, and business payments over a four-year period, with amounts rising at 12-month intervals. After the initial four-year phase-in, all assistance amounts will automatically adjust annually based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to account for inflation. The bill directly affects homeowners, renters, and business owners displaced by government acquisition of property for public use.
