An Act To Include A Tribal Member In The Baxter State Park Authority

This bill amends the legislation creating a seat for a tribal member on the Baxter State Park Authority. It removes a provision that would have allowed the Governor to appoint a representative from any federally recognized tribe if the Mi'kmaq Nation did not unanimously recommend a candidate. The change ensures that the appointment process relies solely on the Mi'kmaq Nation's joint recommendation without a backup appointment mechanism.
