A 4084 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes school districts to submit separate proposals for additional spending for subsequent budget year at special school election.

This bill would allow New Jersey school districts without a board of school estimate to submit proposals for additional funding at special school elections, rather than only at annual elections. Special elections for this purpose could occur in January, March, September, or December, with districts limited to one such proposal per school year. The proposal must specifically identify program purposes for the funds and indicate whether approval would create a permanent tax increase. Districts could still submit capital project requests on the same election date. This change provides more flexibility for school districts to seek voter approval for additional funding when needed.
