Requires COAH to administer affordable housing obligations of municipalities based on Statewide obligation.

This bill (S 2104) changes how New Jersey's municipalities meet their affordable housing obligations under the Mount Laurel doctrine. It requires the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) to administer these obligations based on a statewide target instead of individual municipal requirements. The bill eliminates the use of regional contribution agreements (which allowed municipalities to transfer housing obligations to other areas) and clarifies COAH's role in setting fair share guidelines for low- and moderate-income housing. It directly affects all New Jersey municipalities required to provide affordable housing under state law, shifting responsibility from local calculations to a state-level system.
