In computing the foregoing limitation as to amount, there shall be excluded all bonds which shall be issued for (1) costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the bonds and (2) refunding purposes, provided that the refunding shall be determined by the authority to result in a debt service savings. The authority may establish reserve or other funds to further secure bonds and refunding bonds. In computing the foregoing limitation, the authority may include those reserves of the authority or other State authorities to be made available for the purposes of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) or those amounts to be made available by any bistate or other agency with jurisdiction in the qualified municipality. Prior to the approval of this financing plan, the authority shall submit a copy for review and approval of the Joint Budget and Oversight Committee. b. The authority may, in any resolution authorizing the issuance of bonds or refunding bonds, pledge the contract with the State Treasurer, provided for in section 49 of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-48), or any part thereof, for the payment or redemption of the bonds or refunding bonds, and covenant as to the use and disposition of money available to the authority for payments of bonds and refunding bonds. All costs associated with the issuance of bonds and refunding bonds by the authority for the purposes set forth in P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) may be paid by the authority from amounts it receives from the proceeds of the bonds or refunding bonds and from amounts it receives pursuant to sections 48 and 49 of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-47 and C.52:27BBB-48), which costs may include, but are not limited to, any costs relating to the issuance of the bonds or refunding bonds and costs attributable to the agreements described in subsection c. of this section.

The authority is authorized to enter into any agreements necessary or desirable to effectuate the purposes of this section, including agreements to sell bonds or refunding bonds to any persons and to comply with the laws of any jurisdiction relating thereto. c.

Bonds and refunding bonds issued by the authority pursuant to P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) shall be special and limited obligations of the authority payable from, and secured by, such funds and moneys determined by the authority in accordance with this section. Neither the members of the authority nor any other person executing the bonds or refunding bonds shall be personally liable with respect to payment of interest and principal on these bonds or refunding bonds. Bonds or refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) shall not be a debt or liability of the State or any agency or instrumentality thereof, except as otherwise provided by this subsection, either legal, moral or otherwise, and nothing contained in P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) shall be construed to authorize the authority to incur any indebtedness on behalf of or in any way to obligate the State or any political subdivision thereof, and all bonds and refunding bonds issued by the authority shall contain a statement to that effect on their face. f. The authority is authorized to engage, subject to the approval of the State Treasurer and in such manner as the State Treasurer shall determine, the services of financial advisors and experts, placement agents, underwriters, appraisers, and such other advisors, consultants and agents as may be necessary to effectuate the purposes of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.). g. The proceeds from the sale of the bonds, other than refunding bonds, issued pursuant to P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.), after payment of any costs related to the issuance of such bonds, shall be applied to the purposes set forth in section 50 of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-49). h. All bonds or refunding bonds issued by the authority are deemed to be issued by a body corporate and politic of the State for an essential governmental purpose, and the interest thereon and the income derived from all funds, revenues, incomes and other moneys received for or to be received by the authority and pledged and available to pay or secure the payment on bonds or refunding bonds and the interest thereon, shall be exempt from all taxes levied pursuant to the provisions of Title 54 of the Revised Statutes or Title 54A of the New Jersey Statutes, except for transfer, inheritance and estate taxes levied pursuant to Subtitle 5 of Title 54 of the Revised Statutes. i. The State hereby pledges and covenants with the holders of any bonds or refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.), that it will not limit or alter the rights or powers vested in the authority by P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.), nor limit or alter the rights or powers of the State Treasurer in any manner which would jeopardize the interest of the holders or any trustee of such holders, or inhibit or prevent performance or fulfillment by the authority or the State Treasurer with respect to the terms of any agreement made with the holders of these bonds or refunding bonds or agreements made pursuant to subsection e. of this section, except that the failure of the Legislature to appropriate moneys for any purpose of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.) shall not be deemed a violation of this section. j. Notwithstanding any restriction contained in any other law, rule, regulation or order to the contrary, the State and all political subdivisions of this State, their officers, boards, commissioners, departments or other agencies, all banks, bankers, trust companies, savings banks and institutions, building and loan associations, saving and loan associations, investment companies and other persons carrying on a banking or investment business, and all executors, administrators, guardians, trustees and other fiduciaries, and all other persons whatsoever who now are or may hereafter be authorized to invest in bonds or other obligations of the State, may properly and legally invest any sinking funds, moneys or other funds, including capital, belonging to them or within their control, in any bonds or refunding bonds issued by the authority under the provisions of P.L.2002, c.43 (C.52:27BBB-1 et al.); and said bonds and refunding bonds are hereby made securities which may properly and legally be deposited with, and received by any State or municipal officers or agency of the State, for any purpose for which the deposit of bonds or other obligations of the State is now, or may hereafter be authorized by law.

Additional violations; penalties.
Status: in_force

19. a. No person shall: (1) Obstruct, hinder, delay, or interfere by force or otherwise with the commissioner or any local enforcing agency in the exercise of any power or the discharge of any function or duty under the provisions of the "Uniform Fire Safety Act," P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.); (2) Prepare, utter, or render any false statement, report, document, plans, or specification permitted or required under the provisions of P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.); (3) Render ineffective or inoperative, or fail to properly maintain, any protective equipment or system installed, or intended to be installed, in a building or structure; (4) Refuse or fail to comply with a lawful ruling, action, order, or notice of the commissioner or a local enforcing agency; or (5) Violate, or cause to be violated, any of the provisions of P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.). b. (1) A person who violates or causes to be violated a provision of subsection a. of this section shall be liable to a penalty of not more than $5,000 for each violation. If a violation of subsection a. of this section is of a continuing nature, each day during which the violation remains unabated after the date fixed in an order or notice for the correction or termination of the continuing violation shall constitute an additional and separate violation, except while an appeal from the order is pending in connection with any property except for those properties which are certified by the fire code official to be unoccupied. For the purposes of this section, a building may not be certified to be unoccupied unless it has been unoccupied for a period of not less than six months. (2) If an owner or operator has been given notice that the owner or operator is required to abate a violation of P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.) and fails to abate the violation, the owner or operator shall be liable to an additional penalty of not more than $50,000. If a violation is of a continuing nature, each day during which the violation remains unabated shall not constitute an additional and separate violation for the purposes of the penalty in this paragraph. Continuing liability for unabated violations of record and unpaid fees or penalties following a change of ownership or tenancy shall be determined in accordance with subsections f. and g. of this section. (3) An additional $150,000 or the actual cost, whichever is greater, may be imposed as a penalty for the expense to the municipality or fire district of suppressing any fire, directly or indirectly, resulting from the unabated violation and for any other actual expenses, including attorney fees, incurred by the municipality for the enforcement of the violation. (4) Upon the 121st day subsequent to its filing, an appeal to a county, municipal, or joint construction board of appeals, a departmental appeal, or an appeal to a court of competent jurisdiction shall not automatically stay any order, including orders to pay a penalty imposed pursuant to P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.), or prevent the seeking of an order in a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin the violation of any order of an enforcing agency in connection with any property which is found by the fire code official to be unoccupied. Any party filing an appeal with a court of competent jurisdiction regarding violations assessed against property which has been certified as unoccupied pursuant to this section shall file a motion upon the initiation of the appeal requesting expedited consideration of the appeal on the ground that acceleration is warranted because the subject of the appeal involves matters of public safety. In the event the appeal is granted, the court shall grant the motion to expedite. c. The commissioner or a local enforcing agency may levy and collect penalties in the amounts set forth in this section, but not in excess of the maximum amounts that the commissioner shall establish by regulation for different types of violations. If the administrative penalty order has not been satisfied by the 30th day after its issuance, the penalty may be sued for, and recovered by and in the name of the commissioner or the enforcing agency, as the case may be, in a civil action by a summary proceeding under "The Penalty Enforcement Law of 1999," P.L.1999, c.274 (C.2A:58-10 et seq.) in the Superior Court or municipal court. All moneys recovered in the form of penalties by a municipality shall be paid into the treasury of the municipality and shall be appropriated for the enforcement of P.L.1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et seq.); except that the additional penalty paid by an owner or operator to a municipality under paragraph (2) or (3) of subsection b. of this section shall be placed in a special municipal trust fund to be applied to the municipality's or fire district's cost of firefighter training and new equipment. A person who fails to pay immediately a money judgment rendered against them pursuant to this subsection may be sentenced to imprisonment by the court for a period not exceeding six months, unless the judgment is sooner paid. d. A person shall be deemed to have violated or caused to have violated a provision of subsection a. of this section if an officer, agent, or employee under the person's control and with the person's knowledge has violated or caused to have violated any of the provisions of subsection a. of this section. e. Upon request of the owner or purchaser of a building or structure, the enforcing agency having jurisdiction over the building or structure shall issue a certificate either enumerating the violations indicated by its records to be unabated and the penalties or fees indicated to be unpaid, or stating that its records indicate that no violations remain unabated and no penalties or fees remain unpaid. f. A new owner who purchases a property without having obtained a certificate stating that there are no unabated violations of record and no unpaid fees or penalties shall be deemed to have notice of all existing violations of record and shall be liable for the payment of all unpaid fees or penalties. The department shall issue requests for payment of unpaid fees or penalties within five years of the purchase date. g. (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2) of this subsection, a new operator taking control of an existing tenant business shall assume liability for the payment of all existing unpaid fees and penalties assessed for that business. The department shall issue requests for payment of unpaid fees or penalties within a period of five years from the date of the change in operator, provided, however, a new operator who was a principal in, or agent of, the business previously occupying the property or who is related to a principal in, or agent of, that business by blood, adoption, or marriage shall assume existing liability for the payment of all unpaid fees and penalties indefinitely. (2) A new operator who occupies all or part of the property with a business not previously situated on the property shall not assume liability for the payment of unpaid fees and penalties. h. As used in this section: "Operator" means a person or persons in the position of a tenant or lessee who conducts business from and is in actual physical possession or occupancy of all or part of the property. "Owner" means a property owner, or the owner's agent or representative, whose name appears on the title in the public records.

Findings, declarations.
Status: in_force

2. The Legislature finds that certain large and small municipalities in this State experience fiscal distress as a result of insufficient collection of tax revenues, insufficient collection of other revenues, over-anticipation of revenues of prior years, or from other causes; that these municipalities function within stringent budgetary constraints, straining their revenue sources to provide basic public services for their residents; that these municipalities may benefit from the expertise of the State in recommending fiscal recovery measures designed to alleviate the fiscal distress they are currently experiencing; and that short-term State assistance, in the form of State grants and loans, may provide the temporary revenue bridge these few municipalities need in order to overcome their current difficulties and regain their financial stability. The Legislature, therefore, declares that it is fitting and proper, and within the public interest, to provide loans and grants to certain municipalities experiencing budgetary difficulties in generating adequate local revenues in order to assist those municipalities not only in meeting their immediate budgetary needs, but also to enable them to regain their financial stability.

Findings, declaration relative to the New Jersey Puerto Rico Commission.
Status: in_force

1. The Legislature finds and declares that: a. Approximately 5.1 million Hispanics of Puerto Rican origin resided in the 50 states of the United States and in the District of Columbia prior to the devastation of Hurricane Maria; and b. The number is significantly greater than Puerto Rico's population of 3.6 million, which was in decline due to out-migration before Hurricane Maria; and c. The storm made landfall on September 20, 2017, and caused a degree of destruction and disorganization rarely experienced in American history, so that months after the storm abated, many of the island's residents still lack access to electricity and clean water; and d. Hurricane Maria was a worst-case scenario from a meteorological standpoint, as the center of the huge Category 5 hurricane passed directly over Puerto Rico with wind and rain lasting over 30 hours; and e. Hurricane Maria exhibited many of the elements of a catastrophic event, not just a disaster, as catastrophic events are rarer than disasters because they result in the destruction of critical infrastructure over a large swath of land, which is exactly what happened in Puerto Rico; and f. Though the true extent of Hurricane Maria's damage to Puerto Rico is still being assessed, there are some indications of what the long term effects of it will be, including: predictions that the island's economy will shrink by about eight percent in 2018, thus making Puerto Rico among the slowest growing economies in the world; thousands of businesses have been unable to open due to continuing electrical blackouts months after the storm; and over 200,000 people have left the island; and g. Approximately 500,000 persons of Puerto Rican descent live in New Jersey, which is the third-largest Puerto Rican population of any state, and it is estimated that approximately 30,000 displaced Puerto Ricans have come to New Jersey in the wake of Hurricane Maria; and h. New Jersey recognizes its moral obligation to provide relief to all Americans in distress who come to our State; and i. This State is committed to contributing to the stabilization of Puerto Rico, so that those who wish to return to their homes on the island will have an opportunity to do so and to find a safe, stable, and sustainable environment in which they can raise a family, educate their children, find gainful employment, and enjoy a level of services similar in quality to those with which New Jersey is blessed.

Findings, declarations relative to certain mandate requirements, procedures for local governments.
Status: in_force

1. The Legislature finds and declares: Over the past four decades, prior to adoption of the constitutional amendment prohibiting unfunded State mandates on local government, the State routinely and systematically imposed greater and greater numbers of mandates, orders, directives and burdens on local government. This web of mandates and burdens came about as the result of the enactment and adoption of a plethora of unrelated laws and regulations addressing many and diverse issues. While these actions by State government occurred in order to address a variety of public concerns, they all shared a common philosophical underpinning: the mandatory implementation of State policy directives by local government officials. While the overwhelming majority of these statutes and regulations was established by sincere-minded and well-intentioned public officials in order to address legitimate public concerns, the collective regulatory weight of these mandates on local officials continues to be a matter of deep concern and a subject that cries for legislative relief. In response to this decades long pattern of seemingly inexorable increases in burdensome mandates from Trenton, local officials repeatedly petition the Legislature for relief. In response to entreaties of local officials, various committees of several Legislatures have determined to continue to address the problem of burdensome mandates on an expedited basis through the enactment of omnibus acts that repeal or modify many of those mandates, resolve administrative ambiguities and encourage more businesslike practices. This is the fourth such omnibus mandate relief act. L.2001,c.342,s.1.

The Legislature also finds and declares that the State will have the ability to present and promote programs of its own selection at the War Memorial building in order to make the facility's schedule of events more responsive to the interests of State, local and regional residents while not limiting use of the facility by New Jersey organizations, community groups and public agencies.

Findings, declarations
Status: in_force

5. The Legislature finds and declares that: New Jersey home health agencies are reporting increased denials of reimbursement for Medicare home-based skilled nursing care by fiscal intermediaries of the federal Health Care Financing Administration; these home health care cutbacks are particularly serious in the context of national efforts to reduce hospital utilization; patients are leaving the hospital earlier and sicker, and need appropriate follow-up care; and the principal source of post-acute home health care for the elderly and disabled should be the Medicare program. The Legislature further finds and declares that: recent reductions in Medicare home health benefits and other Medicare services may have been made through federal directives to fiscal intermediaries without public review and comment; in some cases benefits are denied in violation of federal law and regulations and, therefore, a program of legal assistance to aid New Jersey Medicare beneficiaries in appealing such denials should be established.

Status: in_force

1. Whenever any person holding employment, whose compensation is paid by this State or by any county, municipality, board of education or authority in this State, or by any board, body, agency or commission thereof shall indicate in writing, including by electronic communications, and which writing or communication may be evidenced by the electronic signature of the employee, as the term electronic signature is defined in section 2 of P.L.2001, c.116 (C.12A:12-2), to the proper disbursing officer his desire to have any deductions made from his compensation, for the purpose of paying the employee's dues to a bona fide employee organization, designated by the employee in such request, and of which said employee is a member, such disbursing officer shall make such deduction from the compensation of such person and such disbursing officer shall transmit the sum so deducted to the employee organization designated by the employee in such request. Employees who have authorized the payroll deduction of fees to employee organizations prior to the effective date of the "Workplace Democracy Enhancement Act", P.L.2018, c.15 (C.34:13A-5.11 et seq.), may revoke such authorization in accordance with the law in effect at the time of their initial authorization of payroll deduction of fees or with the terms of that authorization as those terms are set forth on the record bearing the employee's signature, provided the terms were consistent with the law in effect at the time. Employees who have authorized the payroll deduction of fees to employee organizations on or after the effective date of the "Workplace Democracy Enhancement Act", P.L, 2018, c.15 (C.34:13A-5.11 et seq.), may revoke such authorization by providing written notice to their public employer. An employee's notice of revocation of authorization for the payroll deduction of employee organization fees shall be effective on the 30th day after the anniversary date of employment. Within five days of receipt of notice from an employee of revocation of authorization for the payroll deduction of fees, the public employer shall provide notice to the employee organization of an employee's revocation of such authorization. Nothing herein shall preclude a public employer and a duly certified majority representative from entering into a collectively negotiated written agreement which provides that employees included in the negotiating unit may only request deduction for the payment of dues to the duly certified majority representative. Such collectively negotiated agreement may include a provision that existing written authorizations for payment of dues to an employee organization other than the duly certified majority representative be terminated. Such collectively negotiated agreement may also include a provision specifying the effective date of a termination in deductions as of the July 1 next succeeding the date on which notice of withdrawal is filed by an employee with the public employer's disbursing officer. This authorization for negotiation of exclusive dues deduction provisions shall not apply to any negotiating unit which includes employees of any local school district or county college.

Employees who are not enrolled in the New Jersey Educators Health Plan or the Garden State Health Plan shall continue, after the effective date of this act, P.L.2020, c.44, to contribute to health care benefits coverage and those contributions shall be determined in accordance with what is permitted or required by provisions of law. An employee who is enrolled in a plan other than the New Jersey Educators Health Plan or the Garden State Health Plan shall be required to contribute toward the cost of health care benefits coverage under the program (a) in accordance with a collective negotiations agreement applicable to that employee as negotiated prior to or after the effective date of this act, P.L.2020, c.44, pursuant to the requirements that were set forth in law on the day next preceding that effective date; (b) as may be required at the discretion of the employer; or (c) as required by a provision of law, whichever is applicable to that employee.

For a retiree who is not Medicare-eligible, the annual retirement allowance, including any cost of living adjustments to that allowance, received by the retiree shall be used to identify the percentage to be used to calculate the annual contribution required under subsections a. and b. of section 2 of this act. f. The annual contribution by an employee or a retiree who is not Medicare-eligible as calculated in accordance with subsection a. or b. of this section shall not exceed the amount as calculated in accordance with section 4 of this act, P.L.2020, c.44 (C.52:14-17.46.16). g.

Negotiations concerning contributions for health care benefits shall be conducted as if the contributions required pursuant to subsections a. and b. of this section were included in the prior contract. The contribution scheme of percentage of base salary set forth in those subsections may be modified or a new contribution scheme or method other than a percentage of salary may be provided for in accordance with a collective negotiations agreement. i.
