Louisiana HB847 modifies the election, duties, and requirements for district supervisors of the soil and water conservation commission.
HB847 transfers the oversight of district supervisor elections to the secretary of state. It removes the requirement for the state commission to fund, supervise, and publish election results. The bill mandates that elections be held annually on the second Saturday in June, with the three candidates receiving the most votes being elected as district supervisors. It also requires supervisors to attend at least two-thirds of scheduled district meetings to be eligible for reappointment or reelection, a condition that can be waived by the commission for good cause.
