A 4266 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides tax credit to developers for affordable housing projects in certain neighborhoods.

This bill provides tax credits to developers who build affordable housing projects in designated "distressed neighborhoods" - specifically census tracts within municipalities facing economic hardship where median family income is below 80% of the statewide average. The tax credit applies to qualifying projects in these areas, as defined by the bill's amendments to existing law. Developers must meet specific affordability requirements and operate within neighborhoods identified as needing economic development assistance. The policy directly affects housing developers and aims to incentivize affordable housing construction in targeted communities.
