Sec.  964.415  Resident board members.



    (a) General. Except as provided in Sec. Sec.  964.405(b) and

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.

    (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.
