The six Commissioners include four new members as well as two that have been reappointed to the panel by the Governor.

The Pinelands Commission is a regulatory and planning agency that oversees development, land-use, and a wide range of resource management programs for the million-acre Pinelands. The Pinelands National Reserve and State Pinelands Area were established in 1978 and 1979 under federal and State acts to preserve and enhance the unique natural and cultural resources of the region. “Protection of the Pinelands has been a highlight and priority throughout my career in public service, and the opportunity to lead the Commission is an honor and privilege that I embrace,” said Governor Florio. “I want to thank former Chairman Jacobs and the former Commissioners for their past dedication and commitment to this charge and wish them well in their future endeavors.” Governor Florio takes charge of the Commission in the midst of a year-long review of the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP).

James Broughel. “Cutting Red Tape in the Garden State: New Jersey’s Regulatory Reform Program under Governor Chris Christie.” Mercatus Working Paper, Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Arlington, VA, 2018. Abstract In recent years, numerous states have experimented with red tape reduction efforts with a goal of reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens. Few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of such reforms, however. This paper examines the New Jersey red tape reduction effort, which was implemented under the leadership of Governor Chris Christie, starting in 2010 and ongoing throughout his two terms in office. The reform effort appears to have failed with respect to lowering the overall level of state regulation, though there is evidence that the effort slowed the growth of regulation. Despite this shortcoming, a number of regulations were eliminated as part of the effort, and this paper identifies some best practices, including how regular reporting on the program’s progress provided transparency and appeared to spur legislative action. The paper concludes with a discussion of ways to improve the effectiveness of future state-level reforms aimed at reducing red tape.
