The Iberia Parish Council on Dec. 10 approved a multi‑item consent agenda covering condolence resolutions, appointments to boards and commissions, planning‑commission recommendations, and several budget amendments and grant acceptances.
Key items the council approved or acted on included:
- Consent agenda: The council adopted the consent agenda after members removed Summaries 2‑83, 2‑86 and 2‑88 for separate consideration; the remainder passed by recorded/voice vote.
- Summary 2‑88 (Courthouse façade and LED lighting): The council amended the language removing "refurbishing two fountains and landscaping" from the proposed $121,834 amendment; the amendment carried and the modified budget amendment passed. The clerk said the funds are from federal ARPA lost revenue funds transferred from the general fund.
- Summary 2‑92 (meeting video services): Council approved a one‑year renewal of a contract with the named video service LLC/Bob Larasini Productions to record council meetings for Jan. 1–Dec. 31, 2026.
- Multiple appointments: The council voted to appoint or acknowledge appointments to several boards and commissions (examples include the Acadiana Criminalistics Laboratory representative, Iberia Parish Hospital Service District seats, Regional Planning Commission and other advisory boards); most were approved by unanimous or voice vote with few objections.
- Planning items: The council approved a preliminary and final plat for a 39.653‑acre subdivision (property of Daryl Delahoussay) as recommended by the Iberia Parish Regional Planning Commission.
Several smaller variances and rezoning items were listed for publication; those ordinances will be published and considered at later meetings per statutory requirements.
