The Township of Greenwich recognizes the need to establish a Municipal Alliance Committee to unite the resources of Greenwich Township in a coordinated and comprehensive effort and to develop a plan and application for funding for submission to the County Alliance Steering Subcommittee.
N.J.S.A. 26:2BB-9 enables municipalities in the State of New Jersey to establish municipal alliance committees, the objectives of which are to identify alcoholism and drug prevention, education and community needs and to implement the programs formulated by the County Alliance Steering Subcommittees, and such legislation further provides for the distribution of grants from the Drug Enforcement and Demand Reduction Fund (N.J.S.A. 2C:35-15) to municipal alliance committees to carry out the aforesaid objectives.
There is hereby established "The Greenwich Township Municipal Alliance Committee" to serve the needs of Greenwich Township as stated herein with such Committee eligible to accept and receive funds pursuant to P.L. 1989, c. 51.[1]
