Summary

The police jury's personnel committee and full meeting approved creating an assistant parish manager position (appointment of Paul Leber) and authorized hiring a part‑time ULV spray truck driver at $20 per hour (estimated 27 hours or less per week).

The personnel committee and the full police jury moved to staff up operations: the jury approved the appointment of an assistant parish manager and authorized hiring a part‑time ULV spray truck driver.

At the committee meeting jurors discussed an organizational gap during the parish manager’s absence and recommended creating a lateral assistant position to help manage day‑to‑day operations. Committee members presented a candidate, referred to in the minutes as Paul Leber (the candidate name appears in the committee discussion); jurors asked staff to bring a scope and job description and to return with a recommended salary change for the next meeting. The committee reported the recommendation to appoint Mr. Leber as assistant parish manager to the full jury; the regular meeting minutes record the committee’s actions as approved.

On hiring for mosquito/ULV spraying operations, the personnel committee approved hiring a part‑time ULV spray truck driver at a contractor rate of $20 per hour. The minutes state the position will be part time ("27 or less" hours) with typical nightly shifts of approximately two to three hours on Monday through Wednesday, with an average of about 10 hours per week reported during discussion. The motion was seconded at committee and recorded as carried in the minutes.

Committee leaders asked staff to provide a final job description, scope and recommended pay adjustment for the assistant manager position at the next meeting and to finalize contractor hours and scheduling for the spray position.
