Creates "Shark River Bridge Study Commission" and "Shark River Bridge Impacted Business Aid Program."
This bill creates a "Shark River Bridge Study Commission" to analyze the economic impact of the bridge's closure on local businesses, determine affected businesses, and recommend grant sizes and funding levels. The commission - comprising eight members including business owners from Belmar and Avon-by-the-Sea, state officials, and county representatives - must submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within 18 months. Based on this report, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority will establish a grant program to provide operational support to businesses impacted by the bridge closure. Businesses must apply with details about their operational impact and sustainability plan, with grants awarded competitively based on the commission's findings.
