This bill amends the membership structure of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority by increasing the total number of appointed members from 11 to 13. Specifically, it adds six new members: two members each appointed by the Governor, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the General Assembly. The current membership includes the State Treasurer, the President of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, and one member from the Hackensack Meadowlands Municipal Committee, along with the previously mentioned appointed members.
The bill also clarifies the terms of service for the newly appointed members, stating that each will serve a term of four years and will be eligible for reappointment. Additionally, it outlines the process for filling any vacancies that may occur, ensuring that they are filled in the same manner as the original appointments but only for the unexpired term. This expansion aims to enhance the authority's governance and representation, reflecting a broader range of perspectives in its decision-making processes.
