Amends Fiscal Year 2026 annual appropriations act to reassign distribution of certain State aid related to Ivy Hill Park from City of Newark to County of Essex.*
This bill amends the Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations act to redirect $250,000 in state aid originally designated for a community center at Newark's Ivy Hill Park toward general park improvements instead. The funds remain allocated to the City of Newark for Ivy Hill Park, not transferred to Essex County as the title suggests. The change modifies the authorized use of existing appropriations without increasing funding. This is a technical adjustment to how the city may spend the allocated state aid. The bill does not create new funding or alter the total appropriation amount.
