Permits governing body of municipalities having population of 30,000 or less to serve as local board of health; validates certain actions.

S 652 allows municipalities with a population of 30,000 or less to have their governing body (such as a city council or township committee) serve as the local board of health, eliminating the need for a separate board. It amends state law to permit this structure and validates all previous actions taken by such governing bodies acting as the board of health. This change applies to all qualifying municipalities across New Jersey and ensures past public health decisions remain legally recognized.
