N.J.S.A. 32:13A-20 — Chapter provides additional method

32:13A-20. Chapter provides additional method Nothing contained in this chapter shall be deemed to supersede, abrogate or repeal in any way any powers heretofore granted to any county in this state. This chapter shall be deemed to provide an additional method for the doing of the things authorized hereby, and shall be regarded as supplemental and additional to powers conferred by other laws, and shall not be regarded as in derogation of any powers now existing. 32:14-1.1 Findings, declarations relative to Palisades Interstate Park Commission 1. The Legislature finds and declares that the Palisades Interstate Park constitutes a natural and historic resource of immeasurable value; that concern for the preservation of this resource resulted in the enactment, in 1937, of an interstate compact between New Jersey and New York; that this compact established the Palisades Interstate Park Commission as a separate agency charged with the responsibility of maintaining this interstate park; that the separation of this commission from all other agencies of State government has tended to impede, rather than facilitate, the discharging of this responsibility; that from time to time it may benefit the State of New Jersey to utilize the Palisades Interstate Park Commission as the administering agency for parkland that may be acquired in the Highlands or Skylands areas of Bergen, Hunterdon, Morris, Passaic, Somerset and Warren counties in the State of New Jersey, including lands in those areas lying within the North Jersey Water Supply District; and that, in order to insure the realization of the purpose of the interstate compact, it is necessary to alter the powers, functions and duties of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission, all as hereinafter provided. L.1980,c.104,s.1; amended 1995,c.274,s.1.
