Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) The nonprofit may use as its matching share of the cost of acquisition, its own funds or any grant, contribution, donation, or reimbursement from State or Federal programs or from any other public or private source, except as described at (c) below.

(b) The nonprofit may use as its matching share of the cost of acquisition, the value of land donated to the nonprofit, in whole or in part, within the project site, except as provided in (c) below. For the purposes of this subsection, the value of a donation of land is the difference between the eligible land cost and the purchase price of a parcel of land.

1. The land donated to the nonprofit must be eligible for funding under 7:36-15.2 and its acquisition by the nonprofit must comply with all of the requirements of this chapter; and

2. The nonprofit must use the donated land value as its matching share of the cost of acquisition of another parcel within the project site within two years after either it acquires the donated land or the Garden State Preservation Trust approves the project, whichever is later.

(c) A nonprofit shall not use as its matching share of the cost of acquisition:

1. The value of land that the nonprofit owns prior to approval of an application for Green Acres funding under 7:36-17.4, unless the nonprofit had previously obtained an at-risk authorization under 7:36-17.3;

2. Any funding provided under the Green Acres laws;

3. Any funding provided under the Garden State Preservation Trust Act administered by any State agency; or

4. The value of the purchase price in excess of the hypothetical land value, if the hypothetical land value exceeds the eligible land cost.
