A 1734 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires pharmacies to provide 90 days notice to municipality prior to closure.

This bill requires pharmacies to provide written notice to their local municipality at least 90 days before closing, in addition to existing state and federal notification requirements. It directly affects pharmacy owners and local municipalities by giving communities advance warning of potential pharmacy closures. The key provision mandates that pharmacy permit holders or their authorized representatives send this written notice to the municipality's governing board 90 days prior to closure. The bill also directs the State Board of Pharmacy to create implementing rules, but does not change current state or federal closure notification processes.
