Section 5:12-176 - Waiver of requirements relating to composition, during first ten years of tax obligation, of investment tax credit; conditions

Upon a showing of good cause by a licensee, the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority may, in its sole discretion, waive the requirements of subsection b. of section 3 of this act that, during the first 10 years of a licensee's obligation to pay the investment alternative tax imposed by subsection a. of section 3 of this act, at least 100% of the investment tax credit against the tax imposed by subsection a. of section 3 be composed of the purchase of bonds of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, provided the licensee shall make an equivalent investment in or guarantee of infrastructure requirements, such as public roads, streets, intersections and sewer and water facilities, which are dedicated to the public use and benefit society as a whole. To the extent any such investment in or guarantee of infrastructure requirements exceeds the demand for such requirements created by an approved casino hotel or related facility and thus does not finance infrastructure improvements required to be made by a casino licensee pursuant to subsection e. of section 84 of P.L. 1977, c. 110 (C. 5:12-84), the excess investment or guarantee may, in the sole discretion of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, be considered an eligible investment or project if the authority finds that the investment or guarantee serves the most pressing social and economic needs of the residents of the city of Atlantic City and otherwise satisfies the requirements of section 25 of this 1984 amendatory and supplementary act, and if the authority determines that the amount waived does not impair the amount to be set aside pursuant to section 33 of this act and that the waiver will not violate any agreement or covenant or impair any financial obligation of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority.
