Requires Rutgers University study economic impact of military installations in NJ; appropriates $155,000.

This bill mandates Rutgers University's Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy to study how military installations in New Jersey impact the state's economy, including effects on jobs, tax revenue, infrastructure, and overall economic output. The study must analyze direct and indirect economic effects at both state and county levels, evaluate benefits of military projects, and identify potential risks. Rutgers will receive $155,000 in state funding to conduct the study and submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within one year. The study aims to provide data-driven insights for state policymakers to inform future economic planning and resource allocation.
