Bill Summary
Under current law, 11 members constitutes a quorum for any action taken by the New Jersey Redevelopment Authority (authority). This bill amends the law to provide that a majority of the voting members of the authority constitutes a quorum. The bill also amends the law to make technical corrections, including: replacing the term "special needs districts" with "SDA districts" to reflect the terminology used in section 3 of the "Educational Facilities Construction and Financing Act," P.L.2000, c.72 (C.18A:7G-3); and replacing the Department of Commerce and Economic Affairs with the Department of Community Affairs.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the requirements for the New Jersey Redevelopment Authority (NJRA) to conduct official business and makes technical updates to its governing law. Specifically, it changes the quorum requirement from needing 11 members present to a majority of the voting members, meaning that if there are, for example, 15 voting members, at least 8 would need to be present for the authority to take action. The bill also updates terminology by replacing "special needs districts" with "SDA districts," which aligns with current language in the "Educational Facilities Construction and Financing Act," and it moves the NJRA's administrative allocation from the Department of Commerce and Economic Affairs to the Department of Community Affairs.
