Enhances notice requirements and occupancy restrictions for hotels and multiple dwellings following determination of potentially hazardous condition.
This bill (S 2294) requires hotel and multiple dwelling owners to provide enhanced written notice to tenants and stricter occupancy limits when a potentially hazardous condition (like structural issues or fire risks) is identified. It directly affects owners of hotels (10+ units or 25+ sleeping rooms) and multiple dwellings (3+ units), mandating clear communication about hazards and restricting occupancy until repairs are made. Key provisions include standardized notice content and temporary occupancy restrictions during hazard remediation, ensuring tenants are informed and safe. The bill amends New Jersey’s Housing Inspection Act (P.L.1967, c.76) to strengthen these protections without changing existing definitions or exemptions.
