A 2932 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Supplemental appropriation of $2,000,000 to New Jersey Division of State Police for purchase of mobile surveillance towers.

This bill appropriates $2 million from the General Fund to the New Jersey Division of State Police for purchasing mobile surveillance towers. The towers will be used during large public events or unpermitted gatherings - like the May 2022 incident in Long Branch - to provide 360-degree visibility for crowd control. The funding directly supports State Police operations during emergencies affecting public safety and local businesses. The bill is a supplemental budget measure, not a new policy, with no changes to existing laws.
