[Adopted 5-3-2011 by Ord. No. 1425]
As used in the article, the following terms shall have the meanings
indicated:
An elected official or appointed member of the Council, a
board, a commission, a committee or an authority who is not in attendance
at a scheduled meeting.
Advance notice from an elected official or appointed member
that they will not be present at a prescheduled meeting for just cause
to the Municipal Clerk or secretary of said board.
The reasonable grounds and acceptance of an absence from
a member of the Council, a board, a commission, a committee or an
authority meeting by said Council, board, commission, committee or
authority.
The purpose of the within section is to adopt a policy establishing
a lower absentee threshold than that established in N.J.S.A. 40A:9-12.1.
The governing body believes that the hereinafter-established absentee
policy will help the Council, boards, committees, and authorities
to better function and perform their duties.
A.Â
In the event that an elected official or member of a board, committee,
or authority established within the Borough of Emerson fails to attend
and participate at meetings of such body for a period of six consecutive
weeks, or three consecutive meetings, whichever shall be of a longer
duration, without being excused for just cause, the Municipal Clerk
or Secretary of said body shall notify the governing body, in writing,
of that determination. Said council, board, committee or authority
may refuse to excuse said absences only with respect to those failures
to attend or participate which are not due to just cause.
B.Â
The governing body, upon being presented with the above determination,
shall deem said position vacant and proceed to fill said appointment
for the unexpired term in accordance with the appropriate statute.
