This bill amends the existing law regarding the Concordia Parish Hospital Service District No. 1, specifically focusing on the compensation of its governing board members. The amendment allows the governing authority of Concordia Parish to set a per diem for each board member attending meetings, with the new maximum amount increased to three hundred dollars per day. This replaces the previous stipulation that set a per diem of not less than twenty-five dollars and not more than one hundred dollars.
The bill also specifies that board members can receive this per diem for attending up to twelve meetings per year. The changes aim to provide greater flexibility in compensating board members for their service, potentially enhancing participation and governance within the district. The act is set to become effective on July 1, 2023, unless vetoed by the governor and subsequently approved by the legislature.
