43. In addition to the municipal management study, the chief operating officer in consultation with the mayor, shall cause to be conducted a property tax collection audit in order to ascertain those properties which are in arrears with regard to property taxes and subject to tax sale or foreclosure. The study shall identify the ownership of those properties, the length of time during which taxes have been in arrears, and the likelihood that the properties might be developed individually or assembled with adjacent properties for demolition or redevelopment.
Following the completion of the property tax collection audit, the chief operating officer shall submit the study to the Commissioner of Community Affairs, who shall designate the board to assist in the preparation of a demolition funding plan.
The State shall provide the necessary level of funding to allow for the demolition of unsafe structures and clearing of those lots for future development.
