This bill mandates that the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commissioners maintain minutes for all their meetings and public hearings, ensuring that no actions can be taken unless they are documented in these minutes. The minutes must be submitted to the Governor, who has a 15-day period to approve or veto them. If the Governor approves the minutes, the actions taken during the meeting become effective immediately. Conversely, if the Governor vetoes any actions within that period, those actions will be rendered null and void.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that if the Governor does not respond within the 15-day review period, the minutes and any corresponding actions will automatically take effect. This legislation aims to enhance transparency and accountability in the operations of the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commissioners by involving the Governor in the approval process of their meeting records.
