PASSAIC COUNTY INMATES ARE BEING HOUSED IN THE BERGEN AND HUDSON COUNTY JAIL

Officials from the Counties of Bergen and Passaic reached an agreement at the end of 2021 in which Bergen County assumed the custody and care of all Passaic County inmates. Under the terms of the agreement, Bergen County receives $104 per day for each inmate housed at the Bergen County Jail for the first two years of the agreement. According to news reports, the rate increases over the 10-year contract. Passaic County can transfer up to 700 inmates to Bergen County.

Bergen County entered into a shared services agreement with Hudson County to assume responsibility for the female inmate population for Bergen and Passaic County.
