This bill establishes public meeting requirements for the North Jersey Passenger Advisory Committee and the South Jersey Passenger Advisory Committee, both of which operate under the New Jersey Transit Corporation. The committees are tasked with providing advice and guidance to the corporation and its board of directors on issues affecting transit services in their respective regions. The bill mandates that each committee hold four public meetings annually to gather testimony from customers, ensuring that these meetings are publicly announced at least seven days in advance and posted on the New Jersey Transit Corporation's website.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that members of one advisory committee cannot simultaneously serve on the other, and it designates a public member from the corporation's board of directors to act as a liaison to each committee. The new legal language inserted into the current law specifies the public meeting frequency and notice requirements, enhancing transparency and community engagement in the advisory process.
