32:1-35.17a. Viewers; appointment and proceedings; review of findings; view of property
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law, upon any application by the Port Authority to a judge of the Superior Court to fix the amount to be paid for lands to be taken by the Port Authority pursuant to the act to which this act is a supplement, such judge may appoint three commissioners to view said lands and to advise him what damages, if any, should be assessed for the taking of such lands. The commissioners shall proceed under such directions and rules as shall from time to time be fixed by the said judge to view the lands, to hear such evidence as they may desire, and to fix such sum, if any, that in their judgment will represent the fair value of the lands so taken. The said judge may review such findings and shall not be bound thereby, but may alter or reject such findings in such manner as will, in his judgment, fairly protect the interests of the parties, and such review may be made either with or without further hearing. The commissioners so appointed to advise said judge shall make their report to him within one hundred days from the date of their qualifications. It shall be the duty of the judge or the commissioners, designated by him, to view the real property to be acquired.
