RE:
Advisory opinion request regarding whether the daughter of Dirk Guidry a member of the Terrebonne Parish Council, would be prohibited from applying to participate in the Terrebonne Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Buyout Program.
Facts:
The CDBG program is part of the federal hazard mitigation grant program. The Federal Program requires a local sponsor to gather the applications. Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government is the program sponsor in Terrebonne Parish. Any citizen whose structure has been declared substantially damaged under a flood insurance policy is eligible to participate in the program. All applications are submitted by the Parish to the CDBG mitigation team for selection based on eligibility. The applications are reviewed by FEMA. The parish has no participation in the selection process.

Law:
La. R.S. 42:1113A No public servant or member of such public servants immediate family shall bid on or enter any contract, subcontract or other transaction that is under the supervision or jurisdiction of the agency of such public servant.

Recommendations:
Adopt proposed draft opinion.
