House Bill No. by Representative Riser aims to enhance the governance of the Catahoula Parish Library by transferring specific administrative responsibilities. The bill enacts a new provision under R.S. 25:215(B)(19), which stipulates that the administration of and accounting functions for the library's funds will be shifted from the Catahoula Parish Police Jury to the Catahoula Parish Library Board of Control. This change is intended to streamline the management of library resources and empower the board with greater control over financial matters.

The legislation reflects a broader effort to clarify the roles and responsibilities of library boards in Louisiana, ensuring that local library governance is more efficient and accountable. By consolidating financial oversight within the library board, the bill seeks to enhance the operational effectiveness of the Catahoula Parish Library, ultimately benefiting the community it serves.
