Bossier Parish to bill Town of Haughton for parish-provided asphalt overlays under proposed Cooperative Endeavor Agreement
Summary
Dr. Ken Ward said the parish inspected Haughton roads and would provide a set amount of asphalt and overlay work to be billed to the town, under a Cooperative Endeavor Agreement similar to 2025 arrangements and tied to 2025 state funding.
Dr. Ken Ward told the committee that the Town of Haughton requested parish assistance for patching and overlays tied to state funding secured in the 2025 Regular Legislative Session. He said the Cooperative Endeavor Agreement to be considered at the regular meeting is similar to a previously used agreement and that the parish’s highway department can provide a set amount of asphalt and overlay work, which would be billed to the town upon completion.
Juror Philip Rodgers asked whether the work is similar to parking-lot asphalt work done for parish fire departments; Dr. Ward said the concept is the same but that the material and labor costs are reimbursable by the town through state funding. The transcript records the request and inspection findings; no vote on the agreement is recorded in the committee discussion.
