The bill amends the membership structure of the Arkansas Fair Housing Commission, reducing the number of members from thirteen to seven. The new composition will include five members with expertise in real estate-related fields, appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate, as well as two members with demonstrated interest in fair housing issues, appointed by the President Pro Tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives. The bill also establishes that members will serve four-year terms and outlines the process for filling vacancies.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions to ensure that the membership reflects the geographic diversity of Arkansas. Current members will continue to serve until their terms expire, and the new membership requirements will be implemented as vacancies arise. The bill emphasizes that the changes will not shorten the terms of existing members, ensuring a smooth transition to the new structure.
