IN RE PETITION FOR REFERENDUM ON CITY OF TRENTON
ORDINANCE 09-02
A-5864-08T3 12-17-09

The sale of such portion of the water utility system is not
subject to the Faulkner Act referendum provisions mandated by
N.J.S.A. 40:69A-185. The portion serves less than five percent
of the population of the municipality and is excepted from a
public vote by N.J.S.A. 40:62-3.1.

The portion of a municipal water system that lies outside
of the municipality and provides water services to adjoining
municipalities does not "serve" the municipality.
