AI Summary
This bill establishes the Code Blue Shelter Matching Grant Program in the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to provide matching grants to community-based nonprofit organizations that provide shelter services during Code Blue alerts, which are warnings of dangerously cold weather. The bill outlines the application process for these matching grants, which must be related to an underlying grant the organization has received from a county or municipality within the past 12 months. The DCA is required to award the matching grants based on review and analytical criteria, and the total matching grants awarded to any one county or municipality in a given year cannot exceed $50,000. The bill also requires the DCA commissioner to submit a report on the program's effectiveness within three years of its establishment.
