The resolution urges the Board of Supervisors of Southern University and Agricultural and Mechanical College to establish a mayor's institute at the Nelson Mandela College of Government and Social Sciences. It highlights the need for mayors to possess specialized skills and knowledge to effectively address local government challenges. The proposed institute would serve as a platform for Louisiana leaders to share ideas, enhance leadership capabilities, and engage in strategic discussions on various issues such as infrastructure, housing, public safety, economic development, and tourism.

Additionally, the resolution emphasizes the importance of interaction between mayors and state government officials, including the legislative auditor and the Public Service Commission. By fostering best practices for effective governance, the mayor's institute aims to contribute positively to the improvement of communities across Louisiana. The resolution concludes by directing that copies be sent to relevant officials at Southern University to facilitate the establishment of the institute.
