Parish authorizes school board to enter PILOT agreement with Sam Bean Pass Liquefaction LLC
Summary
The parish approved a resolution allowing the Cameron Parish School Board to enter a cooperative endeavor and payment‑in‑lieu‑of‑tax (PILOT) agreement with Sam Bean Pass Liquefaction LLC; the motion passed as a procedural vote to enable the school board to proceed.
Cameron Parish officials adopted a resolution authorizing the Cameron Parish School Board to enter into a cooperative endeavor agreement and payment‑in‑lieu‑of‑tax (PILOT) agreement with Sam Bean Pass Liquefaction LLC. The motion was presented as a procedural item for the governing body to allow the school board to execute its portion of the agreement; the board voted in favor.
A member noted the superintendent had been present earlier and characterized the item as a technicality because the governing body needed to take the resolution to let the school board 'do their business.' The transcript does not include the PILOT term sheet or payment schedule; those details were not presented in the minutes and are 'not specified' in the record.
The board did not record a detailed economic analysis or tax‑revenue projections in the minutes for this specific resolution; any fiscal impacts and implementation details will depend on the school board’s and company’s executed agreement and follow‑up public disclosures.
