This bill amends the "New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zones Act," P.L.1983, c.303 (C.52:27H-60) to specify that the definition of "qualified assistance fund expense" includes purchasing, leasing, or otherwise acquiring land or other property.

AI Summary

This bill amends the "New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zones Act" to clarify that expenses related to acquiring land or other property, whether through purchasing, leasing, or other means, are considered "qualified assistance fund expenses." This means that funds from the Enterprise Zone Assistance Fund can now be used for these property acquisition costs, which can be applied to construction projects, loans, grants, guarantees to businesses, and improvements to public infrastructure within designated enterprise zones. The Urban Enterprise Zones (UEZ) program aims to revitalize economically distressed urban areas by providing incentives for businesses.
