TENANT COMMISSIONER REQUIREMENT FOR SMALL MUNICIPAL HOUSING AUTHORITIES. (a) In this section, "small municipal housing authority" means a municipal housing authority that has fewer than 300 housing units under its jurisdiction. The term includes an authority with no housing units that administers only Section 8 housing assistance provided under Section 8, United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. Section 1437f), as amended. (b) Section 392.0331 applies to a municipality with respect to a small municipal housing authority unless the municipality, acting through the housing authority: (1) makes a reasonable effort to recruit eligible tenants to serve as commissioners of the authority, including notifying the authority's resident advisory board of the opportunity for eligible tenants to serve as commissioners of the authority; (2) does not receive any positive tenant response on or before the 30th day following the date that notice is provided to the resident advisory board under Subdivision (1); (3) repeats the requirements of Subdivisions (1) and (2) at least annually; and (4) provides the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs with the annual notice required by Section 392.0331(j). SECTION _____. The change in law made by this Act in amending Section 392.0331, Local Government Code, and in adding Section 392.0332, Local Government Code, does not affect the ability of a commissioner of a housing authority serving on the effective date of this Act to continue to serve the remainder of the term to which the member is appointed before that date. As the terms of commissioners of the housing authority expire or as a vacancy is created in a commissioner's position, the presiding officer of the municipality shall appoint the tenant member or members required by Section 392.0331, Local Government Code, as amended by this Act. (4) Renumber existing SECTIONS accordingly.
