St. Helena Parish Police Jury adopts revised subdivision regulations after tied tabling attempt
Summary
After a public hearing and a failed motion to table, the Police Jury adopted amendments to Chapter 26 (Subdivision Regulations) on April 22, 2025; the substitute motion passed with five jurors in favor and one opposed.
The St. Helena Parish Police Jury voted to adopt amendments to Chapter 26 of the parish code relating to subdivision regulations after a public hearing on April 22, 2025. President Ryan Byrd made the substitute motion to adopt the ordinance, which Vice President Quanika H. Muse seconded; the motion carried with YEAS: Muse, Willie Morgan, Warren McCray Jr., Ryan Byrd and Doug Watson, and NAYS: Jule C. Wascom.
An earlier effort to table the ordinance — moved by Jule C. Wascom and seconded by Warren McCray Jr. — failed on a tie, after which Byrd offered the substitute motion to adopt. The minutes record public comments were heard during the hearing but do not specify particulars of those comments in the record provided. The ordinance is recorded in the minutes as an amendment, revision, supplement, enactment and re-enactment of Chapter 26 relative to subdivision regulations. The minutes do not specify an effective date for the ordinance.
