Police Jury meeting recap: permits, bids, contracts, grants and routine approvals
Summary
At its Feb. 19 meeting, the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury approved liquor permits, scheduled condemnation hearings, adopted multiple routine resolutions (including a DOT BUILD grant item), awarded a propane fuel bid to Sandiford's LP Gas, approved a Magnolia Building contract amendment and accepted the Allen August Center project as substantially complete.
The Calcasieu Parish Police Jury on Feb. 19 handled a slate of routine agenda items, approving permits, bids, contract amendments and grant agreements.
Among the actions: staff recommended approval of one new and two renewal liquor and beer permits and ratified a special event permit; jurors authorized the director of planning and development to notify property owners to show cause at a public condemnation hearing on April 9, 2026; and minutes from the Jan. 22 meeting were approved.
The jury adopted several project and procurement actions, including authorizing bids for a Lakeshore Drive crosswalk signal, advertising a request for qualifications for engineering services for an emergency generator and Sewage District 11 treatment pond project, accepting a recommendation for the propane fuel bid (Sandiford's LP Gas and Service Co.), approving an amendment to the Magnolia Building architectural contract, and adopting a resolution to accept the Allen August Center parking and pavement improvements as substantially complete. The jury also approved a resolution related to a U.S. DOT BUILD grant and a HUD Continuum of Care grant agreement. Finally, jurors considered a motion to go into executive session; the transcript records the motion and second but does not include further public details.
Votes on these routine matters were recorded in the meeting as "motion carries" or similar language; the transcript does not include detailed roll‑call tallies for these items.
