§ 50901 Housing Agency Board Composition

Key Takeaways

  • •A group of 13 people runs this agency.
  • •The Governor picks 7 members and the chairperson.
  • •Other leaders like the Treasurer and the Secretary of Veterans Affairs are also part of the group.
  • •Some members can't vote, like the Director of Finance.

Example

Imagine a school club where the principal picks most of the leaders, but a few spots are saved for the teacher, the librarian, and a student chosen by the class.

This law works the same way. The Governor picks most of the leaders for the agency, but some spots are for other important people in the government. Some of them can't vote, just like how some adults in the club might only be there to help but don't get to vote on decisions.
