AI Summary

This bill modifies how members are appointed to the South Tangipahoa Parish Port Commission by changing the requirements for submitting nominees. Specifically, it alters which Senate Districts are involved in submitting lists of three nominees for certain positions, consolidating references to Senate District Six and Eleven into Senate District Thirty-seven for multiple appointments. It also corrects a minor spelling error in the name of the "Ponchatoula Chamber of Commerce" and clarifies that the representative for House of Representatives District Seventy-three will also submit nominees alongside the senator for Senate District Thirty-seven for one of the positions. These changes affect the process by which the governor selects commissioners, requiring them to choose from lists provided by specific elected officials and a local chamber of commerce.
