§707. Policies; procurement; employees
A. The regional authority shall establish procurement policies and procedures consistent with the procurement policies of the FAA and any applicable state laws or rules, including any competitive bidding requirements.
B. The regional authority may enter into a lease purchase or installment purchase contract for a period not to exceed the anticipated useful life of the item purchased. The authority may enter into a cooperative purchasing agreement with the state, another public entity, or an external procurement activity as defined in R.S. 39:1556 for the purchase of goods, including but not limited to recycled goods, and services necessary for the operation of the authority.
C. A member of the board or an officer, appointee, or employee of the regional authority shall be a public servant pursuant to R.S. 42:1102(19), and is subject to any other applicable law with respect to conflicts of interest. The board shall establish an ethics policy governing the conducting of airport business and the conduct of airport employees. The regional authority shall establish policies that are no less stringent than those provided for public officers and employees by R.S. 42:1101 et seq. and coordinate efforts for the regional authority to preclude the opportunity for and the occurrence of transactions by the regional authority that would create a conflict of interest involving members of the board or employees of the authority.
D. A member of the board or an officer, appointee, or employee of the regional authority is not subject to personal liability when acting in good faith within the scope of his or her authority and is not subject to liability for any liability of the regional authority. The board may defend and indemnify a member of the board or an officer, appointee, or employee of the regional authority against liability arising out of the discharge of his or her official duties. A regional authority may procure an insurance policy or policies to cover members of the board and officers, appointees, and employees of the regional authority from personal loss or accountability for liability asserted by a person with regard to bonds or other obligations of the regional authority, or from any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance of the bonds or other obligations or by reason of any other action taken or the failure to act by the regional authority.
The regional authority may also purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in any capacity or arising out of the status of the person as a member of the board or an officer or employee of the regional authority, whether or not the regional authority would have the power to indemnify the person against that liability under this Subsection.
