32:2-23.30. Conditions of lease, sale, transfer, or other disposition of buses and ancillary bus facilities

Any such lease, sale, transfer or other disposition of buses and ancillary bus facilities shall be on such terms and conditions, including consideration, consistent with this act as the port authority shall deem in the public interest and which shall be acceptable to the port authority and the lessee. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law, general, special or local, part of the consideration for any such lease or transfer shall consist of an agreement by the lessee to maintain and use such buses and ancillary bus facilities, or cause such buses and ancillary bus facilities to be maintained and used by others under agreement with the lessee, in the effective and efficient transportation of passengers in accordance with this act and the port authority may accept such agreement in lieu of any other consideration for such lease or transfer. The lessee shall be responsible for the proper operation, maintenance, repair and use of the buses and ancillary bus facilities and the port authority shall not be liable in any respect by reason of the ownership, development, operation, maintenance, repair or use of such buses and ancillary bus facilities. Anything contained in this act to the contrary notwithstanding, development of such buses and ancillary bus facilities and introduction into service of such buses shall be subject to the approval of the lessee.
