6. a. There is hereby established in the EDA an office which shall be staffed by employees of the EDA which shall remain under the supervision and control of the EDA. The office shall be responsible for carrying out the policies set forth by the authority, in a collaborative manner with the host municipalities and the county. The office shall be administered by a director whose hiring shall be reviewed and approved by a subcommittee of the members of the authority to be appointed and convened at the direction of the chairperson of the authority for the purposes of this action.
b. The authority will rely solely on the office for all support services it requires to carry out its mission under this act, including, but not limited, to administrative, procurement, budgetary, clerical, and other similar types of services.
c. The authority and the EDA may enter into any agreements necessary to provide for the establishment, operation, and financial support of the office.
d. The costs of the office shall be paid for by the authority. The EDA shall on an annual basis submit to the authority a budget for review and approval by the authority for the anticipated costs of the office for the succeeding calendar year. If, during the course of the calendar year, it is necessary to amend the budget, the EDA shall submit an amendment or amendments to the authority for review and approval by the authority. All costs and expenses of the office shall be accounted for separately and apart from the costs and expenses of the EDA in its capacity as redeveloper pursuant to the designated redevelopment agreement.
In the event the authority does not have adequate monies to fund the budget, the EDA may make a loan to the authority in the amount of the unfunded portion of the budget on terms and conditions acceptable to the EDA and the authority.
e. When it is necessary for the authority to engage the services of professional consultants, including registered architects, licensed professional engineers, planners, attorneys, accountants, or other professional consultants, the office shall assist the authority in the procurement process.
