1Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mountain, J.

Rent control ordinances have proliferated in the five years following this Court’s decision in Inganamort v. Borough of Fort Lee, 62 N. J. 521 (1973), which upheld a municipality’s power to enact such an ordinance. The principles governing attacks on the facial validity of rent control ordinances were discussed at length in Hutton Park Gardens v. West Orange Town Council, 68 N. J. 543 (1975); Brunetti v. Borough of New Milford, 68 N. J. 576 (1975), and Troy Hills Village v. Parsippany-Troy Hills Tp. Council, 68 N. J. 604 (1975)…
