Summary
The Eunice Mayor and Board of Aldermen and Alderwomen adopted Ordinance 0525(A), amending the fiscal year 2025 budget, and approved Ordinance 0525(B), the adopted budget for fiscal year 2026, following a public hearing that drew no public comments.
Mayor Scott A. Fontenot and the Eunice Board of Aldermen and Alderwomen met in a special session on June 25, 2025, and adopted two budget ordinances. The board approved Ordinance 0525(A), which amends the City of Eunice budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and Ordinance 0525(B), the City of Eunice budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
The meeting opened with a public hearing at 6:00 p.m. on the two ordinances. Mayor Scott A. Fontenot said the hearing was for public comment on Ordinance 0525(A) and Ordinance 0525(B); there were no comments from the public.
After the hearing Mayor Fontenot called the regular meeting to order at 6:15 p.m. He announced that a quorum was present, listing Alderman At Large Marion “Nootsie” Sattler, Alderman Chad Andrepont, Alderwoman Germain Simpson, Alderman Randall Reed and Alderwoman Connie Thibodeaux as in attendance.
The board moved quickly to action.

Later, Alderman Randall Reed moved to adopt Ordinance 0525(B) — the FY2026 budget — and Alderwoman Connie Thibodeaux seconded; that motion also carried.
The record does not include vote tallies or any recorded opposition; the minutes state each motion was "carried." The meeting concluded when a motion to adjourn, moved by Alderman At Large Sattler and seconded by Alderman Andrepont, was carried.
