N.J. Admin. Code § 5:42-3.2

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 23, December 2, 2024
Section 5:42-3.2 - Bedroom requirements
(a) Bedroom requirements for the selected units will be in accordance with DCA's standards used to issue voucher. The actual choice of unit size (that is, the number of bedrooms) is not governed by this section.
(b) Vouchers are issued based upon family size and composition. These subsidy standards are applied consistently for all families of like size and composition. They are also consistent with the space requirements under the housing quality standards (see "Standards Used to Determine Acceptability of Unit Size" in Chapter 8-NJ DCA--Administrative Plan for the Federal Housing Choice Voucher Program) and, therefore, meet the regulatory requirement at 24 CFR 982.402(b)(1) to "provide for the smallest number of bedrooms needed to house a family without overcrowding."
(c) Subsidy standards for standard issuance are as follows:
