A 2863 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Creates searchable website for certain records available through open public records request.

This bill requires New Jersey state and local government agencies to create a searchable online website for certain public records already available through open records requests. It specifically mandates that records like budgets, contracts, public employee salaries, and overtime information be made searchable on this site. The website would provide direct public access to these documents without requiring individual requests, streamlining how residents find government data. This applies to all covered agencies, including municipalities, school boards, and public authorities, under existing open records law. The bill does not change which records are public, only how they are accessed.
