V-COMM President Dominic Villecco is providing his expertise to the “End the 911 Fee Diversion” press conference as the State of New Jersey continues to reign as the worst offender of diverting 911 fees in the entire nation.
For well over a decade, the State has misallocated 911 fees to the tune of $1.5 billion laying the foundation for an imminent public safety crisis and imposing an inequitable system of double taxation on residents across the Garden State. County leaders will take this opportunity to urge members of congress to adopt the report and recommendations of the “Ending 911 Fee Diversion Now Strike Force” established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) late last year.
The purpose of this press conference is to urge the United States Congress to adopt the recommendations of the 911 Strike Force to compel the State of New Jersey to comply with federal guidelines and restore critical Fund monies to county and municipal 911 centers.
