The resolution urges the Louisiana Housing Corporation to conduct a study on its resource allocation for financing development projects in rural areas, with a report due to the legislature by March 15, 2026. It highlights the growing challenge of affordable housing in the state and emphasizes the need for a comprehensive housing strategy that includes the development of new units, preservation of existing affordable housing, and expansion of rental assistance.

The resolution points out that rural areas face significant housing challenges, such as substandard conditions and limited access to resources, which hinder private investment. By allocating more resources to these areas, the Louisiana Housing Corporation could enhance the construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of affordable homes and rental housing, ultimately improving housing availability for residents in rural communities.
