For more than a decade, New Jersey has responded to the dire financial circumstances of Camden by providing extraordinary payments of state aid pursuant to the Municipal Rehabilitation and Economic Recovery Act, N.J.S.A. 52:27BBB-1 to -65. However, the amount of state aid has declined in recent years.
