Ouachita Parish introduces ordinance to sell adjudicated properties at public auction
Summary
Ordinance No. 9528 was introduced to authorize sale by cash Act of Sale of five adjudicated parcels via public auction under LA R.S. 47:2201 et seq.; purchasers and bid amounts from Sept. 18, 2025 are recorded in the ordinance text.
The Ouachita Parish Police Jury introduced Ordinance No. 9528 on Oct. 6, 2025, which would authorize acts of sale by the parish of five adjudicated properties by public auction and set conditions for those sales under Louisiana law.
The ordinance lists parcels adjudicated to the parish and the high bidders at the September 18, 2025 auction: Parcel 3359 (BSN Properties, LLC — $4,000.00); Parcel 58070 (Patrick Salter — $737.84); Parcel 86626 (Herman Green — $12,163.20); Parcel 86628 (Herman Green — $827.91); and Parcel 84969 (Derius Bursey — $1,648.74). The ordinance text specifies conditions required by LA R.S. 47:2201 et seq., including reservation of mineral rights, certification by E&P Consulting, LLC regarding record searches and notice, and payment requirements at closing.
The ordinance also cites the expiration of statutory redemption periods under Article 7, §25 of the Louisiana Constitution and parish ordinances previously adopted. The text as presented includes procedural requirements the parish or its management company must satisfy prior to the Act of Sale (certifications, notices and waiting periods) and states that the parish president is authorized to execute Cash Sales that include the conditions listed.
The minutes record the ordinance was introduced; they do not show a final adoption vote at the Oct. 6 meeting. The ordinance describes legal steps that must occur before closing; the minutes do not indicate final sales or conveyances were completed that day.
