House Bill No. by Representative Adams enacts a new provision under R.S. 33:4305(B)(6) specifically for gas utility districts in East Feliciana Parish. The bill stipulates that members of the board of commissioners for these districts will not receive a salary for their duties. Instead, they are allowed to receive a per diem for attending meetings, with a cap of twenty-four regular and two special meetings per year. The per diem amount is set by the board, not to exceed $250 per day. Additionally, members can be reimbursed for legitimate expenses incurred while conducting district business.

Furthermore, the bill allows the board to provide reasonable additional compensation for members who take on extra responsibilities, such as serving as secretary, treasurer, or secretary-treasurer. This legislative change aims to clarify the compensation structure for board members while ensuring that they are compensated fairly for their service and any additional duties they may undertake.
