New Jersey S1315 allows municipalities to receive affordable housing credits for residents in shared living arrangements.

New Jersey S1315 permits municipalities to obtain one unit of credit against their affordable housing obligation for each resident in an alternative living arrangement. These arrangements include shared kitchen and plumbing facilities, central heat, and common areas. Examples are transitional facilities for the homeless, boarding homes, residential health care facilities, group homes for the developmentally disabled and mentally ill, and congregate living arrangements. The bill requires affordability controls on these living arrangements to remain in effect for at least 10 years.
