Bill Summary
Under the provisions of this bill a member of a municipal governing body who abstains from voting to fill a vacancy in the office of mayor or on the governing body would not be counted as a remaining member of the governing body, and a majority would be determined by those voting in favor or in opposition to a nominee to fill the vacancy.
AI Summary
This bill amends the New Jersey statutes to provide that members of a municipal governing body who abstain from voting to fill a vacancy in the office of mayor or on the governing body shall not be counted as remaining members of the governing body. Instead, a majority to fill the vacancy will be determined by those voting in favor or in opposition to a nominee, rather than the total number of remaining members.
