[HISTORY: Adopted by the City Council of Orange Township 12-3-2019 by Ord. No. 54-2019. Amendments noted where applicable.]
This chapter shall be known as the "Special Needs Registry."
It is the purpose and intent of this chapter to create and maintain
a list of municipal residents in need of special assistance in case
of an emergency for public safety purposes in accordance with P.L.
2017, c. 266 (N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.67).
The City Clerk shall maintain a list containing the names and
addresses of Township residents who identify themselves as being in
need of special assistance in the event of emergency and who request
that this information be maintained on their behalf for public safety
purposes. The list maintained by the City Clerk shall be cross-indexed
by name and address of each resident requesting to be on the list
and shall identify the special circumstances of each individual.
The City Clerk shall provide the list, solely and strictly for
the purposes of P.L. 2017, c. 266 (N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.67), to the Township
Police Department, to each fire department or fire district servicing
the municipality, and to each first aid or rescue squad servicing
the municipality and shall ensure that they are provided with updates
at least monthly.
[Amended 12-6-2022 by Ord. No. 63-2022]
A notice shall be sent to Township residents annually with the
tax bills mailed to local property taxpayers advising residents that
a special needs list is being maintained by the Clerk for public safety
purposes. A notice shall also be published on all Municipal websites
and updated according to State Statue and Municipal Code. The notice
shall include information as to how a municipal resident may add his
or her name and address to the municipal list.
Within 30 days following notification by the City Clerk pursuant
to P.L. 2017, c. 266 (N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.67), and thereafter at the
time of creation of a tenancy, a landlord shall advise each tenant
that the City Clerk maintains a list containing the names and addresses
of Township residents who identify themselves as being in need of
special assistance in the event of an emergency, and who request that
this information be maintained on their behalf, for public safety
purposes.
The City Clerk shall notify each landlord who has filed a certificate
of registration with the Township pursuant to Section 2 of P.L. 1974,
c. 50 (N.J.S.A. 46:8-28), of the existence of the list and shall provide
the landlord with a copy of a notice to be provided to the landlord's
tenants, including information as to how a tenant may be added to
the list.
The list of persons, maintained by the City Clerk, identifying
themselves as being in need of special assistance in the event of
an emergency for public safety purposes pursuant to P.L. 2017, c.
266 (N.J.S.A. 40:48-2.67) shall not be a government record and shall
be deemed confidential for the purposes of P.L. 1963, c. 73 (N.J.S.A.
47:1A-1 et seq.).
