Limits amount of real property that may be exempt from property taxation under "Long Term Tax Exemption Law."

This bill (S 1955) limits New Jersey municipalities' ability to grant long-term property tax exemptions for redevelopment projects. It sets a 5% cap on the total value of exempt property relative to a municipality's overall taxable property value. Municipalities exceeding this threshold cannot approve new tax exemptions until their exemption rate drops below 5%, calculated by dividing exempt property value by total taxable value and multiplying by 100. The bill directly affects local governments seeking to use tax exemptions to attract redevelopment projects, ensuring such exemptions do not unfairly reduce state school aid allocations to other districts.
