Senate Bill No. 191, introduced by Senator Edmonds, amends the composition of the board of commissioners for the St. George Fire Protection District. The bill establishes that the board will consist of five members, with three members appointed by the St. George City Council and one member appointed by the East Baton Rouge Metropolitan Council. The four appointed members will then select the fifth member.

Additionally, the bill outlines the terms of office for the commissioners, stating that the initial terms for three of the commissioners will be one year, while the initial terms for the remaining two will be two years, determined by lot. Following these initial terms, all subsequent terms will last for two years. This legislation is set to take effect on August 1, 2025.
