a. There is created in the Department of the Treasury a special fund to be known as

who enters into a redevelopment agreement pursuant to section 35 of P.L.1997, c. 278 ( C.58:10B-27 ) and is certified for reimbursement pursuant to section 36 of P.L.1997, c. 278 ( C.58:10B-28 ). A special account within the fund shall be created for each developer upon approval

of a certification pursuant to section 36 of P.L.1997, c. 278 ( C.58:10B-28 ). The Legislature shall annually appropriate the entire balance of the fund for the

purposes of reimbursement of remediation costs as provided in section 39 of P.L.1997, c. 278 ( C.58:10B-31 ). b. The fund shall be credited with an amount from the General Fund, determined sufficient

by the Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the Commerce and Economic Growth Commission , to provide the negotiated reimbursement to the developer. Moneys credited to the fund shall be an amount that equals the percent of the remediation

costs expected to be reimbursed pursuant to the redevelopment agreement. In estimating the amount of new State taxes that is anticipated to be derived from

a redevelopment project pursuant to section 35 of P.L.1997, c. 278 ( C.58:10B-27 ), the Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the Commerce and Economic Growth Commission and the State Treasurer shall consider taxes from the following: the Corporation

to collect the tax pursuant to the “Sales and Use Tax Act,” P.L.1966, c. 30 ( C.54:32B-1 et seq. ), the tax imposed pursuant to P.L.1966, c. 30 ( C.54:32B-1 et seq. ) from the purchase of materials used for the remediation, the construction of new structures, or the construction of new residences at the site of a redevelopment project, or the

portion of the fee imposed pursuant to section 3 of P.L.1968, c. 49 ( C.46:15-7 ) derived from the sale of real property at the site of the redevelopment project

“Shore Protection Fund” or the “Neighborhood Preservation Nonlapsing Revolving Fund”

contractors, subcontractors and other parties connected with the project, that the

tax equals one percent of the developer's contract price for remediation and improvements

or such other percentage, not to exceed three percent, that may be agreed to by the

director upon the presentation of clear and convincing evidence that the tax on materials

is greater than one percent of the contract price for the remediation and improvements.
