Requires base salary of Palisades Interstate Park law enforcement officers to be equivalent to average base salary of officers in contiguous municipalities.
This bill requires the Palisades Interstate Park Commission to set base salaries for its law enforcement officers equal to the average base salary paid to officers in neighboring municipalities with similar training, experience, and service years. It defines "base salary" to include salary guides, increments, longevity pay, and service-based raises. Any salary adjustments for these officers after the bill takes effect must be funded from the state General Fund. The bill directly affects Palisades Park law enforcement officers, ensuring their compensation aligns with comparable municipal roles. The bill is pending legislative action as of its January 2026 introduction.
