Relating to state contracts regarding homeless
HB 4342 requires any organization receiving a state contract to administer and distribute funds for homeless shelters to have a board of directors with one representative from each region of West Virginia. This applies directly to entities contracting with the state for homeless shelter funding distribution. The key provision mandates regional representation on these boards as a condition for receiving state contracts. The bill does not alter funding amounts or eligibility but changes the governance structure for administering these funds.
