La. Stat. tit. 3 § 321
Current with changes from the 2024 3rd Extraordinary Session effective on or before 1/1/2025
Louisiana's rural areas are a vital element of the state. In order to mitigate the rapid deterioration of rural health, education, infrastructure, and other systems essential to the socioeconomic well-being of Louisiana's rural population, it is necessary that the state encourage and support the creation of a rural development program. It is therefore declared to be the public policy of this state to develop and enhance the state's rural areas through a rural development fund and a program of rural development.
