HB 150 Louisiana House · 2026 Regular Session

LOCAL GOVERNMENT: Authorizes Cameron Parish to establish a local insurance program

HB 150 authorizes Cameron Parish to create a local insurance program that helps homeowners offset their homeowners' and flood insurance costs. The parish governing authority can establish the program through an ordinance, set eligibility rules, and fund it using parish appropriations, voluntary contributions, or grants. The program must be managed per the ordinance, and if terminated, all remaining funds transfer to the parish's general fund. This bill directly affects Cameron Parish homeowners seeking assistance with insurance expenses through a locally administered initiative.
