NJ Areas in Need of Rehabilitation

This data set is a spatial representation of Areas in Need of Rehabilitation. Areas in Need of Rehabilitation are defined and mapped through the redevelopment process as defined and governed by statutory requirements. These requirements are in turn molded by court decisions that affect the way the laws are applied. An amendment to the Local Redevelopment and Housing Law (LRHL), effective as of July 9, 2003, requires municipalities provide the DCA Commissioner with a governing body resolution determining that a delineated area, or any part thereof, is a rehabilitation area for review. Prior to that date, there was no reporting requirement and no mechanism in place to track or record Area in Need of Rehabilitation determinations. While outreach was conducted to obtain information on determinations made prior to the statutory amendment, not all municipalities responded, and it is therefore not possible to establish the extent to which the data in this file are comprehensive. Statute Reference: N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-1 et seq. Commonly referred to as the Local Redevelopment and Housing Law (LRHL).本数据集为需改造区域（Areas in Need of Rehabilitation）的空间表征。需改造区域通过法定要求所界定与规范的再开发流程完成定义与绘图标注。此类法定要求实则由影响法律适用方式的司法判例所塑造。2003年7月9日起生效的《地方再开发与住房法（Local Redevelopment and Housing Law，LRHL）》修正案要求各市政当局向DCA专员提交一份主管机构决议，以证明某一划定区域或其任意部分属于需改造区域以供审核。在此修正案生效之前，并无相关报告义务，也无配套机制用于追踪或记录需改造区域的认定结果。尽管已开展信息征集工作以收集该法定修正案出台前的区域认定相关信息，但并非所有市政当局都予以回应，因此无法确定本文件中数据的覆盖范围是否全面。法规依据：N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-1 及后续条款，通常被称为《地方再开发与住房法（LRHL）》。
