Requires municipalities to conduct lead paint inspections in single- and two-family dwellings; requires reporting of inspection results to State.

New Jersey's A2894 requires municipalities to inspect single- and two-family rental properties for lead paint hazards at least once every five years (every two years for properties with encapsulation), with fees covering inspection costs. Municipalities must either conduct inspections through their own agencies or hire certified contractors, then report results annually to the Department of Community Affairs, including high-risk areas. The bill establishes a $20 fee per unit for a Lead Hazard Control Assistance Fund, while exempting properties built after 1978, certified lead-free, or seasonal rentals (less than six months annually). This shifts inspection responsibility from the state Department of Community Affairs to local municipalities.
