HOUSING/AUTHORITIES: Provides relative to the Houma-Terrebonne Housing Authority
HB 39 amends Louisiana law to change the governance structure of the Houma-Terrebonne Housing Authority. It requires the parish president to appoint four commissioners (including at least one tenant from a housing development operated by the authority) and mandates the parish governing body to appoint one commissioner, creating a five-member board. The bill also adds that any removal of a commissioner must be approved by the parish governing body. This directly affects how the Houma-Terrebonne Housing Authority's board is formed and managed, with no broader policy changes beyond its specific local governance rules.
