Establishes "Affordable Housing Obligation Study Commission" to assist municipalities in addressing affordable housing obligations.
This bill creates a temporary study commission to help New Jersey municipalities better understand and address their affordable housing obligations. The commission would consist of six members appointed by various state officials and the League of Municipalities, and it would operate independently within the Department of Community Affairs. Its main tasks include reviewing the history of affordable housing in the state, analyzing past guidance given to local governments, estimating future housing needs based on population growth, and holding public hearings to gather input. Within one year of starting, the commission must publish a report with recommendations for both municipalities and state agencies on how to meet housing obligations, after which the commission will automatically dissolve.
