MINOR
The bill expanded the scope of municipalities required to include financial transparency information in their public access plans. Originally limited to municipally owned beaches that charge beach tag fees, it now also covers municipally owned beach clubs and children's recreation camps operated primarily on the beach. The bill moved from introduced status to first reprint after being reported by the Assembly Tourism, Gaming and the Arts Committee with amendments.
SCOPE
Expanded the types of municipal beach-related facilities subject to financial disclosure requirements from just 'municipally owned beaches that charge beach tag fees' to also include 'municipally owned beach clubs' and 'children's recreation camps that are operated primarily on the beach.'
TECHNICAL
The STATEMENT section (a plain-language summary of the bill) was removed, which is standard when a bill moves from introduced to reprint status.
