Provides that in certain cases vacancy in membership of board of education of limited purpose regional school district will be filled by majority vote of board of education of constituent district represented by former board member.
This bill changes how vacancies on school boards in limited purpose regional school districts are filled. Specifically, it requires that vacancies on such boards be filled by a majority vote of the members from the constituent district (the town or area that originally elected the board member), rather than by the remaining members of the school board itself. The bill amends New Jersey law to clarify this process for these specific school districts. This change directly affects the governance of limited purpose regional school districts across New Jersey.
