Bill Summary
This bill provides that, in the event that a member of a board of county commissioners fails to attend three consecutive meetings of the board without good cause, as determined by the board, that member may be removed from the board of county commissioners by an affirmative vote of a majority of the board members present. The bill provides that any vacancy created by such a removal is required to be filled in accordance with the provisions of chapter 20 of Title 40 of the Revised Statutes for the remainder of the member's term, or as provided in the bill. This bill mirrors language in N.J.S.18A:12-3 allowing a board of education to remove a member of the board if that member fails to attend three consecutive meetings of the board without good cause.
