The bill amends R.S. 33:4710.12(B) concerning the residency requirements for members of the board of commissioners for the Ernest N. Morial-New Orleans Exhibition Authority. The new language specifies that while each appointed member must be a resident of or have their principal place of business in Orleans Parish, there will be an exception for two members who can be residents of or have their principal place of business in the state of Louisiana.

This change aims to broaden the pool of potential candidates for the board by allowing for two members from anywhere in Louisiana, rather than strictly from Orleans Parish. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the designated period for bills to become law without a signature.
