NEW Mandatory GovConnect Enrollment Categories

The Local Finance Board recently adopted amendments to N.J.A.C. 5:30-16.2 requiring the following officials to enroll in GovConnect by November 1, 2023: Municipal Business Administrators and Managers, County Administrators and Managers, Certified Public Works Managers (CPWMs), and individuals designated to serve as a local unit's PURCHASING AGENT (both QPA and non-QPA). The covered officials will receive GovConnect and E-Government for Government (EGG) notifications via e-mail from the Division of Local Government Services (DLGS).

The above-referenced officials MUST REGISTER by November 1, 2023 by emailing EGG@dca.nj.gov with their name, title, local unit, and email address. Once registered in the DLGS GovConnect Portal, the official will receive an email from EGG with instructions on how to activate the authorization code on the MyNewJersey portal.

Municipal CFOs, County CFOs, Municipal Clerks, Clerks to County Boards of Commissioners, and Tax Collectors are reminded of their current obligation to enroll in GovConnect. The board of commissioners
for each local authority (including regional authorities) and fire districts must also designate at least one representative to be enrolled in GovConnect. Officials holding one or more of these roles and have not yet registered must contact EGG@dca.nj.gov to initiate the signup process. A Municipal Clerk or Tax Collector, or a Municipal or County CFO, will be required to authorize access by providing a resolution, email, or similar documentation upon their registration.

Officials are responsible for updating their GovConnect enrollment information.

Notice sent to: Administrators/Managers; Municipal & County CFOs; Procurement Officials; Municipal
