I'm pleased to announce that Vernon Township will be receiving an additional $200,000 in federal funding to support our First Responders!
This funding will be used to purchase critical active-threat response equipment and provide specialized training to better prepare our emergency personnel for dangerous and rapidly evolving situations.
This comes on the heels of another recent funding announcement last month, when Vernon Township was approved to receive an additional $80,000, including:
- $30,000 for a public safety drone.
- $50,000 for counterterrorism training.
That's a total of $280,000 in additional funding dedicated to strengthening public safety, improving emergency response capabilities, and equipping our First Responders with the tools and training they need.
Investing in public safety means investing in the people who put their lives on the line to protect our community.
I want to thank Congressman Josh Gottheimer and his team for their continued support of Vernon Township.
My commitment to public safety remains a priority. Our First Responders deserve the resources they need, and I will continue fighting for them!!
