§ 18a:13-33.

Whenever the board of education of a regional district and the commissioner or his

representative, shall, after consultation, study and investigation, determine that

it is advisable to add to the purposes for which the regional district was created,

one or more of the purposes for which such a district may be created as provided in

this chapter, the regional board shall by resolution frame and adopt a proposal to

that effect and submit to the voters of the regional district at any school election

held therein, the question, whether or not said proposal shall be approved, briefly

describing the contents thereof and stating the date of its adoption by the regional

board of education, and if, at said election, said proposal is adopted by a majority

of the votes cast thereon in the regional district, the secretary of the regional

district shall certify to the county superintendent of each county in which any of

the constituent districts of the regional district is situate, and to the commissioner,

the result of said election and thereafter the regional board of education shall be

authorized to carry out such additional purpose or purposes. If the proposal to add additional purposes will convert the regional district from

a limited purpose regional district to an all purpose regional district, the proposal

shall be submitted to the voters of each of the constituent districts of the regional

district instead of at large to the voters of the regional district. If the boards of education of a regional district, and of each local district, proposing

to join therewith to enlarge said regional district, and the commissioner or his representative,

shall, after consultation, study and investigation, determine by resolution so to

add to the purpose or purposes of the regional district, the authorization of the

adoption of such additional purpose or purposes shall be included by resolution in

the proposal to enlarge said regional district and shall be so submitted to the voters

of the regional district and of each proposed new constituent district at the election

to be held in relation to the enlargement of said regional district.
