JBOC Action To Move Funds on Wind Power, Dredging, Port Improvements and Higher Education Funding
The Joint Budget Oversight Commission has moved nearly $700 M in capital improvement projects forward, from funding provided by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and the New Jersey Debt Defeasance and Prevention Fund.
Monies from the ARPA will go toward development of an additional Level 1 Trauma Center at Hackensack University Medical Center, and 12 other projects.
Monies from the latter will go to projects such as acceleration of wind energy development (along with port improvements and dredging that will need to accompany that) and two Rowan University projects.
