S 910 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prioritizes distribution of 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund monies; permits use of funds for certain expenses incurred by counties and municipalities for the provision and maintenance of 9-1-1 emergency services.

S 910 amends New Jersey's 9-1-1 trust fund law to explicitly permit using its funds for costs incurred by counties and municipalities in providing and maintaining 9-1-1 emergency services. This includes expenses like emergency response training, operating costs, and capital equipment for local 9-1-1 systems. The bill requires funds to be prioritized for distribution to county, regionalized, or large centralized 9-1-1 answering points first, with remaining funds then going to other local systems. It expands the fund's existing uses, which previously covered state-level 9-1-1 operations and federal compliance costs, to directly support local government 9-1-1 service providers.
