A 1805 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes "Revolutionary War Park Study Commission."

This bill establishes the "Revolutionary War Park Study Commission" to evaluate forming a National Historical Park incorporating Washington Crossing State Park, Trenton Battle Monument, and Princeton Battlefield State Park. The 9-member commission - including state officials, bipartisan legislative appointees, and historical experts - will assess feasibility, impacts on historical preservation and local tourism, and potential challenges like land management changes. It must issue a final report to the Governor and Legislature within one year, analyzing advantages, disadvantages, and solutions for creating the park. The study focuses solely on evaluating options ahead of the U.S. founding's 250th anniversary, with no immediate policy changes or park creation.
