New Jersey Acts Saved from Repeal ACTS SAVED 16 § 11-6(1)

3. Every Christian congregation connected with the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, having at the time when this act shall take effect an incorporated board of trustees, shall, in order to perpetuate a line of succession in such board, elect trustees in the following manner. At the annual business meeting of the congregation next succeeding the time when this act shall take effect, the congregation shall by by-law or resolution determine the number of trustees of which the board shall thereafter be composed, which number shall be three or any multiple of three, and the terms of all trustees theretofore elected shall end as soon as their successors shall be elected. Thereupon the congregation shall by a plurality of the votes cast by those members of the congregation male and female, who are of the full age of twenty-one years and who contribute by regular payments at stated periods to the support and necessary expenses of the congregation in accordance with its rules, elect from such members of the congregation one-third of the whole number of trustees to serve until the first succeeding annual business meeting, one-third until the second succeeding annual business meeting, and one-third until the third succeeding annual business meeting, and, at each succeeding annual business meeting of the congregation, successors of the class of trustees whose terms are then expiring shall be elected from such members of the congregation as aforesaid to serve until the third annual business meeting after the election of such successors; provided that a majority of the whole number of trustees shall at all times be members of the church in good and regular standing.
