This bill amends R.S.4:24-18 to allow soil conservation districts in New Jersey to have more than five supervisors. The new language specifies that each district must have "at least five supervisors," who are appointed by the State Soil Conservation Committee, which is also given the authority to determine the maximum number of supervisors for each district. This change replaces the previous stipulation that limited the number of supervisors to five.
The bill aims to provide greater flexibility in the governance of soil conservation districts, potentially allowing for more diverse representation and expertise among supervisors. It is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
