New Jersey Statutes Title 40. Municipalities and Counties 40 § 54A-6

Whenever an authority having first been authorized so to do by resolution adopted by the governing body of the municipality and after investigation and study shall plan to undertake any seaquarium facility or facilities the authority shall make to the governing body of the municipality a detailed report dealing with the proposed seaquarium facility or facilities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this act, the authority shall not construct or acquire such seaquarium facility or facilities, or make any lease or other agreement relating to use by any governmental unit or person of all or any part of any seaquarium facility for a term in excess of 2 years, until there has been filed with the authority a copy of a resolution adopted by the governing body of the municipality certified by its clerk, describing such seaquarium facility or facilities in terms sufficient for reasonable identification and consenting to the construction or acquisition thereof by the authority or the making of such lease or other agreement. Nothing contained in this section shall be deemed to dispense with the necessity for the authorization by a resolution adopted by the governing body of the municipality before the authority shall undertake any such investigation and study.
