Jul-31-07 DCA Announces Property Tax Relief
TRENTON, N.J. – New Jersey Department of Community Affairs (DCA) Acting Commissioner Charles A. Richman today announced calendar year 2007 Extraordinary Aid awards.
“Governor Corzine continues to take action towards easing the property tax burden of New Jersey residents,” said Commissioner Richman. “Extraordinary aid reduces the strain property taxes can have on municipalities and provides the support local governments need to invest in their communities.”
Extraordinary Aid is awarded to municipalities who, because of extreme circumstances, would not be able to provide essential services to the community without a substantial increase in their property tax rate.
To receive Extraordinary Aid, the municipality submits an application to the Division of Local Government Services. The application details the municipality’s fiscal posture and includes information about the municipality’s efforts to contain costs and share services.
DCA’s Extraordinary Aid program is implemented through the Division of Local Government Services, which works with local governments throughout the state to ensure their fiscal integrity and to support their efforts to comply with state laws and regulations.
