Jackson rent board approves CPI increases for three complexes; details and effective dates

At the June 11 meeting, the Jackson Township Rent Leveling Board approved several routine CPI rent-increase applications after the board accountant reviewed proofs and confirmed compliance with the rent-leveling ordinance.

Pleasant Garden Apartments: The board approved a CPI increase of 4.1% (including a 1.5% heat pass-through) effective Aug. 1, 2026; the board accountant prepared schedule A listing new rents. Prospect Point (referred to in the record as GM Prospect Point): The board approved a CPI increase of 2.6% plus 1.5% for heat, for a maximum of 4.1% where heat is provided; effective dates correspond to individual lease anniversaries. Jackson Colonial Arms: The board approved a CPI increase of 4.1% (including 1.5% for heat) effective May 1, 2026, with tenant rent schedules to be attached as prepared by the board accountant.

Board attorney Deborah Rump presented the applications and the board accountant (identified in the record as Carmen Memily) confirmed the filings met ordinance requirements. Roll-call votes were recorded for each resolution; the transcript records approval announcements but does not reproduce a full per-member roll-call tally for the consent resolutions in an itemized format.

These approvals contrast with the board’s decision to deny Pine View’s earlier-year increases after finding deficiencies in prior filings. The board will file the approved schedules and send them to the clerk’s office for inclusion in the official record.
