Zachary council splits 3'2 on scheduling millage workshop
Summary
Council voted 3'2 against scheduling a millage workshop, with Councilman James Graves and Councilwoman Jennifer Landry voting in favor and Councilwomen Brandy Westmoreland, Ambre DeVirgilio and Councilman John LeBlanc opposing.
On June 9 the Zachary Mayor and Council voted on a motion to schedule a millage workshop. Councilman James Graves moved the item and Councilwoman Jennifer Landry seconded. The motion carried with two votes in favor (Graves, Landry) and three votes against (Westmoreland, LeBlanc, DeVirgilio).
The minutes record the split vote but do not include the reasons given on the record for the dissenting votes, nor do they summarize the intended timing or agenda for the workshop. The action authorizes scheduling a workshop to discuss millage but does not itself set a millage rate.
The divided vote was the meeting's clearest example of differing council preferences on the timing or advisability of proceeding to a workshop on millage rates; the minutes do not show further debate or a recorded public comment on the item.
