Meeting roundup: jury approves hazard plan, subdivision, hires and museum repairs; inspection item tabled
Summary
At its May 12 meeting the Avoyelles Parish Police Jury approved a hazard mitigation plan, the Summerwind subdivision, two health‑unit hires, repairs to the Big Bend Museum and several routine items; a proposed inspection fee item was tabled.
The Avoyelles Parish Police Jury took a series of routine actions and approvals at its May 12 meeting.
Among the votes, jurors approved a resolution to adopt the parish hazard mitigation plan (renewal practice every seven years), accepted the Summerwind Subdivision as recommended by the planning commission, and approved up to $4,000 for plumbing and carpentry repairs at the Big Bend Museum. Jurors also approved funding for two full‑time positions at the Marksville/Bunkie Health Unit to expand five‑day operations.
Jurors heard a state‑related inspection item — with cited fees of $325 for an inspector and $150 to the state — but elected to table the matter pending further information. The jury also authorized the secretary‑treasurer to pay bills and waived a full reading of the accounts.
All listed motions carried by voice vote; no roll‑call tallies were provided in the meeting transcript.
