ASSEMBLY STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE

STATEMENT TO

ASSEMBLY, No. 4375

with committee amendments

STATE OF NEW JERSEY

DATED:  MAY 11, 2026

      The Assembly State and Local Government Committee reports favorably and with committee amendments Assembly Bill No. 4375.

      As amended and reported, this bill amends current law to clarify the calculation and application of electric vehicle (EV) parking space credits.  Specifically, this bill clarifies that EV parking space calculations that include a fractional number are to be rounded up to the next whole parking space.  However, the resulting credit is not to exceed the 10 percent limitation under current law.  The bill also clarifies that EV parking space credits are to be applied during the concept plan review stage to determine consistency with a redevelopment plan or other development plan adopted pursuant to law, including a master plan or zoning-based development plan.

      Current law provides that parking spaces prepared with EV supply equipment or Make-Ready equipment may count as at least two parking spaces to satisfy minimum parking requirements, subject to a limitation that the credits may not reduce the total required parking by more than 10 percent.  Current law also requires that EV parking space calculations be rounded up when they result in a fraction of a whole number.

COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS:

      The committee amended the bill to make certain technical corrections.
