New Jersey § 52:27d-385
Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 52:27d-385, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 52:27d-385.
The Legislature finds and declares that customary demands on municipal services and
infrastructure are amplified in municipalities having high population density. The deterioration of infrastructure is especially acute in high density areas when
the use of roads and sewerage facilities far exceeds their planned specifications. Heavy concentrations of population place enormous strains on police, fire, and emergency
services, health services, transportation systems, infrastructure, and sanitation
facilities that cannot be adequately addressed in any municipal budget without excessively
taxing already overburdened property owners. In order to maintain these systems and services at acceptable levels it is a proper
State purpose to provide aid to municipalities with extreme population density to
assure the health, welfare and safety of their residents.
