Universal Citation: NJ Admin Code 5:31-2.10
Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

40A:4-45.4 5.b authorizes an exclusion to the municipal and county property tax levy cap for "extraordinary costs" related to a declared emergency. For the purpose of this law, "extraordinary costs" are defined as expenditures incurred for the immediate preparation, response, recovery, and restoration of public services due to extreme weather conditions or other catastrophic events that are the subject of a gubernatorial emergency declaration, and only for that portion of costs exceeding the cost of providing services under non-emergency conditions. Such funds can be treated as one-time (non-permanent) property tax levy cap exclusions upon submission and review of certifications describing the expenditures to the Director of the Division of Local Government Services, and may be subject to adjustment to account for the receipt of any State or Federal reimbursements.
