01

The FY2026 report updates the Bergen County Central Municipal Diversion Court at 150,317.78 spent between 07/01/2025 and 06/30/2026, with 12 participants served (pp11 to 12).

It explains the figure as completing spending the money from the contracts previously awarded, with no additional monies added. The report prints the same sentence on all six of its program updates. The books show two different things inside this one. Children's Aid and Family Services check 5003109 for 88,960.00 on 08/29/2025 pays contract 2300308, the diversion court contract the FY2024 and FY2025 reports said was encumbered. The other 61,357.78 is not a contract payment. Journal GJ 387 for 61,357.48 on 05/12/2026 and journal GJ 398 for 0.30 on 05/14/2026, described as MOVE PROS OPIOID OVERTIME, charged the fund's salary and wages chargeback line 02-213-43-130-368-012 and credited 02-260-05-000-018 Due to Current Fund. The Prosecutor's Office backup bills a paralegal and an assistant prosecutor for four quarters, 07/07/2024 to 10/05/2024 at 15,794.55, 10/06/2024 to 01/01/2025 at 13,857.97, 04/06/2025 to 06/29/2025 at 17,000.49 and 07/06/2025 to 09/28/2025 at 14,704.77. The weekly time sheets log the hours to the Central Municipal Diversion Program Arrest Initiative, Operation Helping Hand, the Overdose Fatality Review Team and other work. Exhibit E's categories name that kind of work. The check and the two journals make the certified figure to the cent. The report describes Prosecutor's Office payroll as contract spending. Three of the four quarters, 46,653.01, are staff time worked inside the FY2025 period and charged to the fund on 05/12/2026.

The FY2024 report certifies 0.00 expended and 0.00 of administrative expense for the reporting period 7/1/2023 to 6/30/2024 (p1).

It explains that the County is still in the planning phases of these funds and has not expended any funds on administration. It answers No to whether the County funded any programs with the money that year (p2). Its update on the Central Municipal Diversion Court reports 0 on every measure and says the contract is encumbered (pp2 to 3). The books show journal GJ 576 on 05/15/2024, inside the period, charging 30,012.23 to the fund's salary and wages chargeback line 02-213-43-130-368-012, described as OPIOID SETTLEMENT SALARY CHARGEBACK. The Prosecutor's Office reimbursement behind it bills the fund for four employees, a paralegal and two assistant prosecutors among them, for 12/31/2023 to 04/06/2024, with hours logged to the Central Municipal Diversion Program Arrest Initiative, Operation Helping Hand, the Overdose Fatality Review Team and other work. The same 30,012.23 posted the same day as a credit to the Prosecutor's Grant Credits line 01-201-25-275-100-012. The fund paid 30,012.23 for Prosecutor's Office staff time in the year the report certifies as zero.

Five journals charged 141,036.66 of Prosecutor's Office staff time to the fund's salary and wages chargeback line 02-213-43-130-368-012.

GJ 576 for 30,012.23 on 05/15/2024 covers 12/31/2023 to 04/06/2024. GJ 910 for 31,150.97 on 08/08/2024 covers 04/07/2024 to 07/06/2024. GJ 529 for 18,515.68 on 06/05/2025 covers 12/29/2024 to 03/30/2025. GJ 387 for 61,357.48 on 05/12/2026 and GJ 398 for 0.30 on 05/14/2026 cover four quarters from 07/07/2024 to 09/28/2025. The Prosecutor's Office backup bills four employees at hourly rates, a paralegal and assistant prosecutors among them. The first three journals posted the same day as credits to the Prosecutor's Grant Credits line 01-201-25-275-100-012, which also takes the County's VOCA, SART, JAG, STOP, ARRIVE and DLGS salary credits. The County budgets that line as an offset to the Prosecutor's salaries, 937,249.00 in 2024 and 917,866.00 in 2025. GJ 387 and GJ 398 credit Due to Current Fund and call the time overtime. The paralegal's weekly sheets log mostly 40 hour weeks at 28.85 an hour in 2024 and 30.45 in 2025, and the Prosecutor's overtime appropriation was 550,000.00 in each of 2024, 2025 and 2026. Journal GJ 1179 on 10/07/2024 moved Purchase Order 294400, 1,650.00 for 500 printed Central Diversion Program folders, onto the fund from the Central Municipal Court budget the court had ordered them on. The hours are logged to the diversion arrest initiative, Operation Helping Hand, the Overdose Fatality Review Team and other work. Exhibit E's categories name the first three. What the record puts in question is who was already paying for it. That the settlement money took over salary and supply costs the County's own budget carried is this project's inference from these records.

The FY2025 report updates the Bergen County Central Municipal Diversion Court, the one program the County runs itself, at 51,316.65 expended in the reporting period (p38).

It says the Prosecutor's Office was offered an additional year of funding. It reports 0 participants served, 0 services, 0 referrals to treatment and 0 on every other measure, and under Other it writes contract is encumbered. The only contract, 88,960.00 to Children's Aid and Family Services, was still unpaid (p39). The 51,316.65 is three journals. GJ 910 for 31,150.97 on 08/08/2024 is Prosecutor's Office staff time from 04/07/2024 to 07/06/2024. GJ 529 for 18,515.68 on 06/05/2025 is staff time from 12/29/2024 to 03/30/2025. GJ 1179 for 1,650.00 on 10/07/2024 is 500 printed Central Diversion Program folders, moved onto the fund from the Central Municipal Court budget. The three make the certified figure to the cent. The report records no participant, service or referral for the year. The money went to salaries already on the County payroll and to folders the court had ordered on its own budget.

The County pays three providers under contracts it awarded through competitive contracting.

The FY2025 report certifies five provider programs at 330,621.94 expended (pp4 to 37). Each equals one check of 06/19/2025, Transition Professionals 17,230.92 for case management, Children's Aid and Family Services 34,816.57 for justice involved persons and 20,171.35 for overdose prevention, and Care Plus doing business as New Bridge Medical 52,399.00 for adolescent prevention and treatment and 206,004.10 for treatment of opioid use disorder. The FY2026 report updates the same five programs at 822,217.22 spent (pp8 to 11). Each equals the payments on one purchase order to the cent, 37,217.77 on 317375, 159,152.82 on 317374, 85,295.05 on 317372, 162,077.00 on 317371 and 378,474.58 on 317401. The FY2024 and FY2025 encumbered figures, 88,960.00 and 1,414,381.06, equal the open contract and orders on the books at each year end. On the provider side, what the County told the State is what its books show.

Frequently asked questions

Can opioid settlement money be spent on police cars or license plate readers?

No. Exhibit E of the national settlement lists the approved uses: treatment, recovery, prevention, harm reduction and related supports. Vehicles and surveillance hardware are not among the uses it lists, and state law bars using the funds to replace money a town would otherwise have spent.The approved uses

What did Bergen County tell the State it spent the money on?

It certified 14 programs to the Department of Human Services. Each program, its recipient and its amount are reproduced above, beside the payments in the account.See the reports

How was this grade computed?

By code, from a published rubric: reporting integrity 50 percent, spending conformity 40 percent, transparency 10 percent, with hard caps for a certified program that has no payee in the books, for an uncertified transfer out, and for a records refusal.The rubric
