Establishes annual 9-1-1 PSAP County Grants.
This bill (A125) establishes an annual grant program to support county 9-1-1 emergency call centers (PSAPs) in New Jersey. It redirects 10% of the $0.90 fee collected from telephone bills - currently deposited into the 9-1-1 Trust Fund - to provide financial aid for counties to purchase, maintain, and upgrade PSAP technology. The Office of Information Technology, with input from Emergency Management, will distribute the grants and report annually to the Governor and Legislature. This directly affects all New Jersey counties operating public safety answering points that handle emergency calls.
