Sec.  964.105  Role of the jurisdiction-wide resident council.



    (a) Jurisdiction-wide resident council. Resident councils may come 

together to form an organization which can represent the interest of 

residents residing in units under a HA's jurisdiction. This can be 

accomplished by the presidents of duly elected resident councils forming 

an organization, by resident councils electing a representative to the 

organization, or through jurisdiction-wide elections. If duly elected 

resident councils form such an organization, the HA shall recognize it 

as the voice of authority-wide residents for input into housing 

authority policy making.

    (b) Function. The jurisdiction-wide council may advise the Board of 

Commissioners and executive director in all areas of HA operations, 

including but not limited to occupancy, general management, maintenance, 

security, resident training, resident employment, social services and 

modernization priorities.

    (c) Cooperation with other groups. There shall be regularly 

scheduled meetings between the HA and the local duly elected resident 

council, and the

jurisdiction-wide resident council to discuss problems, plan activities 

and review progress.
