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.
