AI Summary

This bill establishes the Urban Area Weatherization and Energy Efficiency Pilot Program in Union City, Trenton, and Camden to identify and address open cockloft spaces between residential buildings. The program will provide weatherization and energy efficiency measures, such as installing fire-rated separations, to these spaces. Low- and moderate-income households can receive the measures at no cost, while other property owners can pay through a property tax special assessment over 10 years. The Department of Community Affairs will promulgate regulations and provide reports on the program's progress and effectiveness. The bill appropriates $30 million from the American Rescue Plan Act to fund the pilot program, with $10 million allocated to each participating municipality.
