S 1434 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Provides reimbursement to emergency shelter following certain evictions.

This New Jersey bill (S 1434) allows emergency shelter operators to seek state reimbursement for costs and lost revenue when evicting occupants who refuse to leave after their authorized stay period expires (per existing law P.L.2013, c.204). Shelters must submit reimbursement requests within 30 days of an eviction warrant, including shelter name, date range, amount, and supporting documentation of the occupant's refusal to vacate. The state would fund reimbursements through annual appropriations from the General Fund to the Department of Community Affairs. It directly affects emergency shelters and their operators by covering expenses tied to pending eviction proceedings.
