Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 38, § 1613. Domicile of district; place of suit; place of meetings

The domicile of the drainage district shall be designated in the ordinance creating the district. The commissioners of a drainage district may at any time, by resolution, establish a different domicile, but the domicile shall always be within the parish or parishes in which any land of the district is situated, after having given notice of intention to change the domicile. The notice shall be signed by the president or secretary of the commissioners and published once a week for thirty days in a newspaper published in the parish of the then existing domicile, or if there is no newspaper, then in a newspaper published in an adjoining parish. After the publication of the notice, the commissioners by resolution may make the change of domicile. A copy of the resolution when adopted shall be recorded in the book of drainage records kept by the clerk of court.

Drainage districts shall be sued only in the court of their domicile.

In the ordinance creating drainage district under this Part a time and place for the commissioners of the district to hold their organization meeting shall be designated.

All meetings of the board of commissioners shall be held at the domicile of the drainage district. By unanimous vote of all of the commissioners composing the board at a meeting of the board held at the domicile, the board may designate a different place at which meetings of the board may be held, which the board of commissioners deemed most convenient to the board and the persons having business transactions therewith.
