Bill Summary
Establishes NJ State Parks and Open Space Foundation.
AI Summary
This bill establishes the New Jersey State Parks and Open Space Foundation, a nonprofit organization devoted to raising funds for improvements to and enhancement of State parks, forests, historic sites, natural areas, and other State-owned or administered lands and facilities for recreation and conservation purposes. The foundation will be governed by a 12-member board of directors, including the Commissioner of Environmental Protection, the Secretary of State, the State Treasurer, and public members with relevant expertise. The foundation will have the power to solicit and accept donations, invest funds, and use the money raised for specific projects and activities beyond routine operations, with a focus on expanding access and public programming. The foundation will be a separate and independent entity from the State, but the Department of Environmental Protection may provide initial support for its formation and incorporation.
