Requires Division of Housing and Community Resources in DCA and applicable State agencies and nonprofits to establish a consolidated application for residential utility assistance programs.

This bill (S 732) requires New Jersey's Division of Housing and Community Resources (DCA) to create a single, user-friendly online application for all state residential utility assistance programs. It directs the DCA to work with state agencies and nonprofit energy assistance organizations to consolidate multiple separate applications into one website-based form. The bill affects residential customers seeking help with utility bills or energy efficiency programs, as well as state agencies and nonprofits administering these programs. The consolidated application must integrate both permanent and temporary assistance programs, streamlining access for residents. The bill was withdrawn on January 13, 2026, as it was approved as P.L.2025, c.265, meaning it is now law.
