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 accessible and well-advertised.

Specifically, the bill inserts a requirement that the committees provide public notice of the time and location of each meeting at least seven calendar days in advance, and that this information be posted on the New Jersey Transit Corporation's website. This addition aims to enhance transparency and community engagement in the decision-making processes of the advisory committees, allowing for greater input from the public on transit-related issues.
