The members shall constitute the housing authority. A majority of the members
shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of conducting business and
exercising powers and for all other purposes. Action may be taken by the
authority upon a vote of a majority of the members present, unless in any case
the bylaws of the authority require a larger number. An authority shall select
from among its members a chairman and a vice chairman, and it may employ a
secretary (who shall be executive director), technical experts, and such other
officers, agents, and other employees, permanent and temporary, as it may
require, and shall determine their qualifications, duties, and compensation. For
such legal services as it may require, an authority may call upon the chief law
officer of the city or a county for which it is created, or may employ its own
counsel and legal staff. An authority may delegate to one (1) or more of its
agents or employees such powers or duties as it deems proper.
