08 Mar: Weinberg Bill To Permit Municipalities To Post Signs When A Property Is Pending Permit Approval Advances

TRENTON – A bill sponsored by Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg which would permit municipalities to post signs whenever a property is pending development permit approval was approved by the Senate Community and Urban Affairs Committee today by a vote of 4-0.

“New Jersey residents deserve to know when development and redevelopment projects are taking place around them, and they deserve an opportunity to let their voices be heard on these projects,” said Senator Weinberg, D-Bergen. “This bill is designed to keep the public informed, and empower average citizens to have a voice in development and zoning decisions within their communities.”
