Requires municipalities to publish employee supplemental payment policies electronically and to provide enhanced notice and oversight of payments.
This bill requires New Jersey municipalities to publish all supplemental payment policies for employees online (or submit to the state if no website exists). It mandates that governing bodies approve each supplemental payment (defined as payments exceeding regular pay or reimbursement for work-related costs) through public meetings, with 20 days' advance notice in a local newspaper and supporting documentation available for public review. Municipalities must also provide detailed documentation about each proposed payment, including rationale and supporting materials, for public inspection. The bill directly affects all New Jersey municipalities and their employees receiving supplemental payments beyond standard compensation. It aims to increase transparency around taxpayer-funded payments without changing payment amounts or eligibility.
