NJ S2837

School districts without a board of school estimate may submit separate proposals for additional funding at special elections authorized under N.J.S.A. 19:60-2, in addition to the existing option at annual school elections

Proposals for additional funds at special elections may only be submitted once during a school year and must include interpretive statements identifying specific program purposes for the proposed funds

Proposals must clearly state whether approval affects only the current year or results in a permanent tax levy increase, and cannot include programs necessary for students to achieve core curriculum content standards

Capital project questions may be submitted to voters on the same special election date as separate proposals for additional funds

The executive county superintendent may prohibit submission of separate proposals if the district has not implemented all potential administrative efficiencies that would eliminate the need for additional tax levies
