Permits counties to charge a fee to fund infrastructure through voter approval.

This bill, S 2304 (the "County Self-Help Infrastructure Act"), permits New Jersey counties to impose a county-wide fee for infrastructure projects after securing voter approval. Counties must hold a referendum requiring over 50% voter support, with the public question specifying the fee amount, duration, and projects (e.g., roads, bridges, water systems). Proceeds from the fee would be used exclusively by counties for infrastructure construction within their jurisdiction, not for general operations. It directly affects New Jersey counties and their residents, who decide through voting whether to fund local infrastructure improvements.
