AR 37 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges Governor and Attorney General to provide assistance to municipalities in response to unpermitted mass gatherings and "pop-up parties" in New Jersey.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 37) urges the Governor and Attorney General to provide state assistance to New Jersey municipalities dealing with spontaneous, unpermitted gatherings known as "pop-up parties." It directly affects local governments, which manage public safety through permit systems for events but struggle with sudden, large crowds organized via social media. The resolution requests enhanced state support to help municipalities better prepare for and manage these gatherings, which have led to safety risks and property damage in incidents like the 2022 Wildwood street take-over. It does not create new laws but calls for collaborative solutions to strengthen local responses.
