S 2877 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires advance written notice before discontinuance of State aid or services.

This bill requires New Jersey state agencies to provide at least 60 days' written notice before ending any state financial aid or service to affected parties, including individuals, organizations, and local governments. For services critical to public health, safety, or welfare (such as healthcare or emergency services), the notice period extends to 90 days. The notice must clearly state the reason for discontinuation, effective date, available alternatives, and contact information for appeals, with exceptions only for federal mandates, emergencies, fund exhaustion, or violations of terms. Agencies must also publish the notice online and inform legislative leaders about the change.
