Council introduced an ordinance to authorize the Parish President to enter into a Cooperative Endeavor Agreement with the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs to operate and maintain a Veterans’ Services Office in St. Bernard Parish.
Summary No. 4342 was introduced on March 17 by administration and the introduction passed by unanimous vote (the minutes record the chair casting his vote as YEA). The text of the proposed cooperative endeavor agreement is on file at the Clerk of Council; the minutes do not record the financial terms, location, or opening timeline for the veterans services office.
Next steps: the ordinance will proceed through the council’s ordinance process; if adopted, the Parish President would execute the agreement and the parish and the state agency would coordinate operations of the office.
