               DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
 
PART 964--TENANT PARTICIPATION AND TENANT OPPORTUNITIES IN PUBLIC HOUSING--Table of Contents
 
                    Subpart E--Resident Board Members
 
Sec. 964.415  Resident board members.

    (a) General. Except as provided in Secs. 964.405(b) and 964.425, the 
membership of the governing board of each public housing agency must 
contain not less than one eligible resident board member.
    (b) Resident board member no longer directly assisted. (1) A 
resident board member who ceases to be directly assisted by the public 
housing agency is no longer an ``eligible resident'' as defined in 
Sec. 964.410.
    (2) Such a board member may be removed from the PHA board for that 
cause, where such action is permitted under State or local law.
    (3) Alternatively, the board member may be allowed to complete his/
her current term as a member of the governing board. However, the board 
member may not be re-appointed (or re-elected) to the governing board 
for purposes of serving as the statutorily required resident board 
member.
    (c) Minimum qualifications for board membership. Any generally 
applicable qualifications for board membership also apply to residents, 
unless the application of the requirements would result in the governing 
board not containing at least one eligible resident as a member. 
Further, PHAs and localities may not establish eligibility requirements 
for board membership that are solely applicable to residents.
