Late in 2024, Jaan Haus, Esq., notified the LSRPA President that due to changes in his work responsibilities/obligations, he was going to have to step down and vacate his position as a Member of the LSRPA Board of Trustees.  The LSRPA would like to take this opportunity to thank Jaan for his hard work and commitment to make the LSRPA work better for all of our members, and we wish him good luck in his new endeavors!

After completing an extensive interview process to find a replacement to fill Jaan’s Board position, the LSRPA is pleased to announce that Patrick T. Mottola, Esq., will be completing the remaining 1 year of Jaan’s 2-year term.
