N.J. Admin. Code § 15:30-7.22 - Revocation of plan endorsement or prior center designation

(a) If the Executive Director finds that a jurisdiction has made substantial changes to its endorsed plan or previously designated center, or has substantially violated the terms of its Plan Implementation Agreement, so that its endorsed plan or previously designated center are inconsistent with the State Plan, the Executive Director shall:

1. Direct the Office of Planning Advocacy to conduct a public hearing in the affected jurisdiction to receive public comment on the status and progress of the jurisdiction's implementation of the endorsed plan or previously designated center. Minutes of this public hearing shall include a summary of public comments and copies of written comments filed before, or presented at, the public hearing;

2. Prepare and forward a monitoring report to the Commission recommending that plan endorsement or prior center designation be revoked;

3. Inform the petitioner, county representatives, and the Commission, in writing, of the reasons therefor; and

4. Provide written notice of said recommendation to the relevant planning entity pursuant to N.J.A.C. 15:30-1.7(h) and post notice pursuant to N.J.A.C. 15:30-7.4.

(b) Within 45 days of the issuance of the monitoring report by the Executive Director, the Commission or its duly authorized subcommittee shall review the recommendation report of the Executive Director and the Commission shall affirm, revise, or reverse the recommendation based on its determination of whether the endorsed plan or prior center designation remains consistent with the State Development and Redevelopment Plan. Except for a revision of the recommendation, the Commission determination regarding revocation shall be a final agency action.

(c) Within 45 days after Commission action, as set forth at (b) above, the Executive Director shall provide notice of the decision to the petitioner, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 15:30-1.7(i) and post notice pursuant to N.J.A.C. 15:30-7.4.
