This bill establishes a prohibition against agreements that aim to conceal information related to the development of data centers in New Jersey. Specifically, it forbids applicants, including their agents, from entering into any agreements, such as non-disclosure agreements, with approving authorities, municipal agencies, or property sellers that would prevent public review of development details. Such agreements are deemed against public policy and therefore unenforceable. Additionally, applicants must attest that no such agreements were made during the real estate transaction for the property intended for development.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that approving authorities or municipal agencies cannot approve any development plans, including minor site plans or subdivisions, if the applicant has violated the provisions outlined in this legislation. It clarifies that the bill does not allow for the concealment of information regarding the development of any structure other than data centers, in accordance with existing laws like the "Senator Byron M. Baer Open Public Meetings Act." The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
