Terms Used In New Jersey Statutes 52:27BBB-22

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • certified mail: include private express carrier service, provided that the private express carrier service provides confirmation of mailing. See New Jersey Statutes 1:1-2
  • Veto: The procedure established under the Constitution by which the President/Governor refuses to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevents its enactment into law. A regular veto occurs when the President/Governor returns the legislation to the house in which it originated. The President/Governor usually returns a vetoed bill with a message indicating his reasons for rejecting the measure. In Congress, the veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House.
22. a. Any applicable period for review or appeal in connection with any application acted upon by either the planning board or zoning board, as the case may be, as provided for under the “Municipal Land Use Law,” P.L.1975, c.291 (C. 40:55D-1 et seq.), shall be extended to incorporate that amount of time taken by the chief operating officer in reviewing the minutes pursuant to subsection c. of section 21 of P.L.2002, c.43 (C. 52:27BBB-21).

b. In the event that the veto of the chief operating officer reverses an approval that has been granted by the planning board or board of adjustment, as the case may be, or allows an application that has otherwise been denied by either board, the chief operating officer shall direct the secretary of the planning board or board of adjustment, as the case may be, to notify the applicant, by certified mail, at the same time that the secretary receives the copy of the minutes with the veto from the chief operating officer pursuant to subsection c. of section 21 of P.L.2002, c.43 (C. 52:27BBB-21).
