§ 5:12-230.

Upon the establishment of the tourism district by resolution of the authority pursuant

to the provisions of section 5 of P.L.2011, c. 18 ( C.5:12-219 ), or upon the establishment of the tourism district under paragraph 2 of subsection

a. of section 5, as appropriate, the authority shall assume all functions, powers,

and duties of Atlantic City, and of any agency or instrumentality thereof, with respect

to the Atlantic City Special Improvement District, and the City of Atlantic City shall

repeal the ordinance or ordinances establishing that special improvement district;

provided, however, that the functions, organizational structure, and operations of

the Atlantic City Special Improvement District shall be continued as a division existing

within the authority. The Atlantic City Special Improvement District, continued as a division within the

authority, shall continue to assess and collect assessments payable to the special

improvement district as of the effective date of the establishment of the tourism

district by resolution of the authority pursuant to the provisions of section 5 of P.L.2011, c. 18 ( C.5:12-219 ). Officers and employees of the special improvement district shall be transferred

to the authority and shall become employees of the authority and the authority shall

retain those employees transferred to the authority pursuant to this section as employees

of the special improvement district division; provided, however, that any employee

transferred to the authority pursuant to this section may be dismissed for cause,

and any such employee may be dismissed if the authority determines that the transfer

of the special improvement district to the authority has resulted in the duplication

of responsibility of the position held by such employee, but such an employee shall

be given a right of first refusal offer of similar employment if such employment shall

become available as determined by the authority.
