S 4358 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs distribution of 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund Account to county 9-1-1 emergency response systems.

This bill directs funds from the state's 9-1-1 System and Emergency Response Trust Fund Account to be distributed equally among all New Jersey counties. The money is intended to support the operation, maintenance, and upgrades of local 9-1-1 emergency response systems. Under the proposed changes, counties would receive these funds directly rather than having the money used for broader state-level emergency services or telecommunications projects. The legislation takes effect immediately upon passage.
