S 2592 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Creates alternate voting members on county agriculture development boards.

S 2592 creates two alternate voting members on New Jersey's County Agriculture Development Boards (CADBs), directly affecting county boards that manage agricultural land retention and development. The bill adds one alternate member actively engaged in farming (to replace absent farming voting members) and one alternate representing the general public (to replace absent public representatives), both serving four-year terms. Alternates may vote only when a regular member is absent or disqualified, helping CADBs maintain quorum and reduce conflicts of interest that previously hindered operations. This structural change amends the Agriculture Retention and Development Act without altering the boards' core functions or funding.
