§ 18a:13-9a.
Notwithstanding the provisions of N.J.S.18A:13-9 or any other section of law to the contrary, in the case in which the membership
of the board of education of the regional district is apportioned pursuant to section
1 or section 3 of P.L.2017, c. 45 ( C.18A:13-34a or C.18A:13-46.1 ), the apportionment shall continue in effect until the receipt by the Governor of the next federal census. Immediately after the receipt by the Governor of a federal census, the Commissioner of Education shall consult with the constituent
districts of the regional district to determine whether or not to reapportion the
membership of the board of education of the regional district. All members of the board of education of the regional district shall continue in
office for the terms for which they were elected or appointed notwithstanding any
reapportionment ordered by the commissioner. If any constituent district receives increased representation on the board as a
result of a reapportionment ordered by the commissioner, the additional members shall
be elected at the next annual school election of the regional district. If, as a result of such reapportionment, a disproportionate number of the total
representatives of any one constituent district to a regional board are to be elected
at a single annual school election, the commissioner shall have the power, on petition
of a constituent district board of education, to alter the term of any member representing
such constituent district by not more than one year, so as to temporarily apportion,
as equally as possible over any given three-year period, the election of the members
representing such constituent district.
