Expands purposes for which civil asset forfeiture funds may be used by law enforcement agency.

Maddy summaryThis bill expands the allowable uses of civil asset forfeiture funds (money from property seized in criminal cases) by New Jersey law enforcement agencies. It specifically adds community outreach, diversity training for officers, and minority recruitment programs to the list of permitted "law enforcement purposes." The bill codifies these additions to the existing definition, which already included crime prevention education, equipment purchases, and federal grant matching. These funds remain restricted to the law enforcement agency that contributed to the case that generated the forfeiture, and cannot be used for general budgetary purposes.

Maddy summaryThis bill creates a program allowing alumni of New Jersey's four-year public universities (excluding community colleges) to purchase special license plates for $50 upfront plus $10 annually. The fees fund a dedicated account that annually supports each university's alumni association through appropriations for their mission and programs.

The Motor Vehicle Commission administers the program, with provisions to discontinue it if administrative costs exceed fees for two consecutive years.
