A 3931 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Adds Bergen County as pilot county for purposes of "Common Sense Shared Services Pilot Program Act."

This bill adds Bergen County to the list of counties eligible to participate in New Jersey's "Common Sense Shared Services Pilot Program." It directly affects Bergen County municipalities and tenured employees in specific roles like municipal clerks, chief financial officers, assessors, tax collectors, and treasurers. Under the program, participating municipalities can form shared services agreements for these roles without being blocked by tenure rights, allowing dismissal of unselected employees while guaranteeing rehiring and salary restoration if the agreement ends within two years. The change expands the pilot program from seven to eight counties (adding Bergen) to test cost-saving service-sharing models.
