MODERATE

HB 106 has been enacted as Act 307, updating the bill's title to reflect a broader coalition of sponsors and converting it from a draft proposal into official law. The most significant substantive change redefines the physical boundaries of the Gentilly Development District in Orleans Parish, expanding the area included in the district by altering the perimeter description to include Allen Toussaint Boulevard.

Scope change

The bill's scope has expanded geographically. The Gentilly Development District now covers a larger area in Orleans Parish, specifically by adjusting the boundary lines to include the stretch of Allen Toussaint Boulevard between Robert E. Lee Boulevard and Leon C. Simon Boulevard.

SCOPE

The geographic boundaries of the Gentilly Development District were expanded to include a new segment of Allen Toussaint Boulevard, thereby increasing the number of properties and residents under the district's jurisdiction.

TECHNICAL

The list of bill sponsors was updated to include five additional representatives (Bayham, Boyd, Wilford Carter, Chassion, Knox, Lacombe, Newell, Taylor, and Walters) alongside the original sponsors.

The legislative digest, which summarizes the bill's purpose and legal effect, was removed from the final enrolled text as it is not part of the official law.

Formal signatures and approval stamps for the Speaker of the House, President of the Senate, and Governor were added, confirming the bill's enactment as Act 307.
