S 1295 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Allocates 10 percent of Green Acres funding to local government units for development of completely inclusive playgrounds.

S 1295 allocates 10 percent of New Jersey's Green Acres funding to local governments for developing or retrofitting playgrounds that are fully accessible to children of all abilities. This bill specifically directs funds toward creating "completely inclusive playgrounds" (including modifications to existing facilities) for recreation and conservation purposes. The funding comes from the Preserve New Jersey Green Acres Fund, which supports land acquisition and development projects statewide. Local government units (municipalities) directly receive these grants or loans to implement the playground projects.
