The Tangipahoa Parish Council on Dec. 22 approved several administrative and operational items, including year‑end procurement bid packages, a change order for the parish’s 2025 maintenance overlay program, a library board appointment and two beer/wine/liquor license applications.

President Miller introduced the year‑end bid approvals, which cover multiple materials and services including fuel, hot mix, limestone, corrugated metal pipe and other road and bridge materials; the council voted to approve the bid tallies contained in the meeting packet. The council then approved Change Order No. 1 for contract TPG‑2025‑001 (maintenance overlay program). President Miller described added items such as Blackburn Road patch and overlay, raised pavement markers and a contract reconciliation. He announced a total for the change order of $198,616.91 and stated the reconciliation piece for materials (figure recorded in the transcript was garbled but referenced at $146,914). The motion to approve the change order was moved and seconded and passed by roll call.

The chair nominated Cecilia Genoble to fill an unexpired term on the Library Board of Control through July 2026. A council member moved to confirm the appointment; the motion was seconded and carried on roll call.

The council also approved two beer/wine/liquor license applications for the same company operating at two addresses in different districts: Kent Quick at 14154 University Avenue (in Mister Wells’s district) and Kent Quick at 24763 Highway 445 in Ponchatoula (moved and seconded on the record). Staff reported both applications were "ready for them" and the council voted to approve each license.

Separately, the chair introduced multiple ordinances (items 2601–2606) for first reading and scheduled public hearings on Jan. 12 at 5:30 p.m.; those introductions were approved by roll call or tabled in the case of Item 2605 (Two Sisters in Unity LLC variance), which the council tabled until the Jan. 12 agenda.

Legal counsel reported no legal matters to present at the meeting. The session concluded with brief council remarks and a motion to adjourn.
