Town of Millville/Charter Change

What it does

The legislature's own summary of the bill, or its official long title.

This Act reincorporates the Charter of the Town of Millville. The Act adds a preamble and reorganizes and groups various sections of the Charter into articles. Also, the Act removes sections related to a Town-only assessment process, given the Town’s use of the Sussex County assessments. Additionally, the Act adds a property tax cap of 3% of the total assessed value in the Town. The municipal election process is amended to include an ultimate tie-breaking mechanism.
