Introduced Text

New Jersey S3562 prohibits homeowners' associations from banning solar panel installation on single-family homes and townhouses.

New Jersey S3562 amends existing law to ensure that homeowners' associations in common interest communities cannot restrict or prohibit the installation of solar collectors on the roofs of single-family homes or townhouses. The bill also allows associations to set rules for solar collector installation and maintenance, provided these rules do not increase costs by more than 10% of the initial installation cost or hinder the solar collectors' efficiency. The Commissioner of Community Affairs is tasked with enforcing these provisions.
