Adds Bergen County as pilot county for purposes of "Common Sense Shared Services Pilot Program Act."
Introduced First Reading Senate Referred to SSG
Summary
The bill expands the Common Sense Shared Services Pilot Program to include Bergen County. Municipalities in Bergen can now enter agreements to share positions such as clerk, chief financial officer, assessor, tax collector, treasurer, or public‑works superintendent, even if those employees have tenure rights. The change aims to test cost‑saving collaborations and allow dismissal of unselected tenured staff, with protections for reinstatement if the agreement ends within two years.
