A 772 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires at least one member of BPU to reside in either Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth, or Ocean County.

This bill (A772) requires that at least one member of New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) must reside in Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth, or Ocean County. It amends the state law governing BPU appointments by adding this residency requirement for all new appointees. The change applies to all future appointments to the BPU, ensuring representation from these four coastal counties. This is a procedural change affecting BPU membership rules, not the board's policy responsibilities.
