Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 32:14-1, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 32:14-1.
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; 1 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. 1
