§427. Commissioners of regional or consolidated housing authority; appointment
A. The governing body of each parish included in a regional housing authority, originally or by an expansion of its area of operation, shall appoint one commissioner of the authority. The first commissioner which any parish governing body appoints shall be approved by the governor. The governing body of each parish shall appoint the successors of the commissioner appointed by it.
B. The mayor of each municipality included in a consolidated housing authority, originally or by an expansion of its area of operation, shall appoint one commissioner of the authority, subject to the approval of the governor. Successors to this commissioner shall be appointed in the same manner.
C. If any parish or municipality is afterwards excluded from the area of operation of a regional or consolidated housing authority, the office of commissioner of the authority from that parish or municipality is abolished as of the time of the exclusion.
D. If the area of operation of a regional or consolidated housing authority consists at any time of an even number of parishes or municipalities, the commissioners of the regional or consolidated housing authority shall, subject to the approval of the governor, appoint one additional commissioner. The commissioners appointed by the parish governing bodies or the municipal mayors, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint the successors if any, of this additional commissioner.
E. At any time that the area of operation of the regional or consolidated authority is changed to consist of an odd number of parishes or municipalities, the additional commissioner's term, determined under R.S. 40:428, ends.
