House Bill No. by Representative Knox amends the existing law regarding the French Quarter Management District in New Orleans. The bill specifically extends the duration of the district's existence from June 30, 2028, to June 30, 2033. This change is made to ensure the continued operation and governance of the district, which serves as a political subdivision of the state and is responsible for enhancing public safety, sanitation, and quality of life for residents, tourists, and businesses in the area.
The bill retains all other provisions of the current law, which outlines the district's purposes, governance, and powers. By extending the district's existence, the legislation aims to support ongoing efforts in strategic planning, business development, and capital improvement initiatives within the French Quarter.
