New Jersey A3216 requires taxation of improvements on publicly owned real property used for public water supply.

New Jersey A3216 amends the state's tax laws to require taxation of improvements, including buildings and dams, on publicly owned real property used for the purpose and protection of a public water supply. Currently, only the land itself is subject to property taxation, but not the improvements. This bill aims to provide property tax relief to municipalities by allowing them to tax these improvements in the same manner as improvements on privately owned watershed property. The changes would take effect immediately upon enactment.
