Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 44:14-2, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 44:14-2.
The Legislature finds and declares: that there is a wide disparity in the cost of
welfare between counties despite the assumption of the major portion of such costs
by the Federal and State Governments; that the county costs are reflected in the
real property taxes paid by the county residents; that the tax reform program enacted
in 1976 is designed to relieve property tax burdens; that, consistent with the objectives
of that tax reform program, it is altogether fitting and proper to establish a program
to provide relief for local taxpayers by placing certain limitations on the per capita
costs of county welfare.
