There is hereby established in Carneys Point
Township a Planning Board of nine members, consisting of the following
four classes pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-23:
B. Class II: one of the officials of the municipality,
other than a member of the Township Committee, to be appointed by
the Mayor.
C. Class III: a member of the Township Committee appointed
by it.
D. Class IV: six other citizens of the municipality to
be appointed by the Mayor. The members of Class IV shall hold no other
municipal office, except that one Class IV member may be a member
of the Board of Education.
The term of the Class I member shall correspond
with his official tenure. The terms of the Class II and Class III
members shall be for one year or terminate at the completion of their
respective terms of office, whichever occurs first. The term of a
Class IV member who is also a member of the Board of Education shall
terminate whenever he is no longer a member of the Board of Education
or at the completion of his Class IV term, whichever occurs first.
The terms of all Class IV members first appointed pursuant to this
chapter shall be so determined that, to the greatest practicable extent,
the expiration of such term shall be distributed evenly over the first
four years after their appointments, as determined by resolution of
the Township Committee; provided, however, that no initial term of
any Class IV member shall exceed four years and further provided that
nothing herein shall affect the term of any present member of the
Planning Board, all of whom shall continue in office until the completion
of the terms for which they were appointed. Thereafter, all Class
IV members shall be appointed for terms of four years, except as otherwise
herein provided. All terms shall run from January 1 of the year in
which the appointment was made.
