§1248.3. Applicability; multi-parish funding district
A. The provisions of this Subpart shall apply to any parish.
B.(1) If a parish has fewer than two hospitals, the parish may join with one or more contiguous parishes with fewer than two hospitals and create a multi-parish funding district, which shall be a new governmental entity. The boundary of a multi-parish funding district shall be coextensive with the combined boundaries of the parishes contained in the multi-parish funding district. A multi-parish funding district shall be established by the governing body of each parish within the boundaries of a proposed funding district passing and adopting a resolution or ordinance establishing the multi-parish funding district and appointing one representative to serve on the multi-parish funding district's governing body.
If any other parish seeks to join after the creation of the district, the resolution or ordinance shall be amended before the new parish may join the district.
(2)The governing body of a multi-parish funding district shall be comprised solely of the individuals appointed by each parish within the boundaries of the district. A parish may replace its appointment to the governing body by resolution or ordinance.
(3)The governing body of a multi-parish funding district shall delegate the operational and administrative burdens of the district to the parishes that comprise the district. Within sixty days of the establishment of a multi-parish funding district, the governing body shall designate at least one parish to serve as the operational and administrative lead for the district. The governing body may change this designation at any time.
(4)Solely for purposes of compliance with this Subpart, a multi-parish funding district is considered to be a parish and the other provisions of this Subpart shall be read to impose parish requirements on the governing body of the multi-parish funding district.
