A 5667 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Clarifies requirements for land use plan element and housing plan element of municipal master plan.

This New Jersey bill clarifies requirements for two key elements of municipal master plans: the land use plan element and housing plan element. It specifies that the land use plan element must describe its relationship to and how it supports the housing plan element, and requires the housing plan element to evaluate housing needs and establish a plan for providing housing, including affordable housing. The bill moves certain detailed requirements from one law to another to streamline municipal obligations under the Municipal Land Use Law. This affects all New Jersey municipalities required to prepare and adopt master plans under the Municipal Land Use Law.
