The East Feliciana Parish Police Jury voted 5-3 on Aug. 3 to rescind a controversial moratorium on new subdivisions after hearing complaints that the moratorium was affecting more than developers who want to build major residential areas. The moratorium, adopted on a 4-3 vote July 20, was preventing landowners from dividing property to pass on to their children and owners of large tracts from selling parts of their property for uses other than as future homesites. Juror Kristin Chasteen pushed for the moratorium last month, saying she wanted the jury to hold off on new subdivisions until the jury amends its land development ordinance to incorporate drainage study requirements suggested by an engineer who studied problems in a new subdivision on La. 964. The earlier meeting devolved into an angry confrontation in which Chasteen accused Juror Jason McCray of implying she was racially biased in pushing for the moratorium. With Chasteen voting from near the meeting room door, the moratorium passed, 4-3, with jury President Louis Kent providing the tiebreaking vote. Jury Vice President Chrissie O’Quin moved to rescind the moratorium, saying it meant the parish “can’t have any divisions of land, period.” McCray also said the moratorium was not done correctly, because it was added to the July 20 agenda without a unanimous vote, a requirement of the state Open Meetings Law. Building Official Jeff Williams said the jury’s subdivision ordinance does not differentiate between major and minor subdivisions, and the moratorium, as adopted, “includes everything.” Chasteen, saying her intention was not to prohibit “dividing my land in half,” made a substitute motion to make the moratorium apply to subdivisions of six or more lots, but the motion failed, 3-5. In addition to Chasteen, Dexter Armstead and Michael Cheatham voted for it, while O’Quin, McCray, Keith Mills, Kyle Fleniken and Richard Oliveaux dissented. Kent did not vote. The vote was reversed on the motion to rescind the moratorium.

He is asking 195368-JUL 29-aug 5-12-3t for a dollar raise for each man in the Maintenance Department. We $223.50 have been handling it without the extra employee and the money is still in the budget. Matt Leggett is proposing something that will save $54K. He only wants to put that in for the next months in the fiscal year. Then it will be easier to put it in the budget. Matt Leggett is retiring in December. The best thing to do is move everyone up. He wants to ask for a dollar an hour for these 5 guys. He is not asking for himself but for the guys in the maintenance dept. Next thing is the part-timer and adjusting down from 7 to 6. Mrs. Debra Norsworthy moves to give all employees a $1.00/hour raise except for supervisors. She inquires as to whether Chris Farris is a supervisor. There is no second and no action taken on the motion. To Mr. Michael Harrell made a motion to give the 5 guys under the Maintenance Superintendent (Under Matt Leggett) a $1/hour raise. Effective July 1, 2026. Mr. Free gave a second. Mr. McCrory abstained from the vote. There was no opposition. There will be a $1/hour raise for each employee working under the Maintenance Superintendent,(Matt Leggett), effective July 1, 2026. We need to bring up filling that parttime position. Don’t want to do it now. Wayne Watson died today. He reports that the Maintenance Department needs a part-timer. They fill in. Matt Leggett does not want to have a full-time position being paid and not being needed.

/s/ Mark Kemp, Mayor CODE ENFORCEMENT REPORT: 195368-JULCARY 29-augQUIET’S 5-12-3t REPORT OFFICER $223.50 Old business Officer Quiet gave an update on some old properties. The Robillards turned over to DEQ. Nothing has been done. Another residence has a fire damage. She has never been back to court. Table this issue to talk about it.

Stray dogs no funds to address that. Animal care and service agreement for temporary service. Asking from David Guillory for an update. Have heard nothing back. May need to look outside of the Town of Jackson and even outside of the Parish for relief. Gave a lot of information on the condemned properties that are part of the demolition grant: 15 structures to be demolished – 7 have agreed to have these torn down and signed contracts. Ask the mayor to contact the one reluctant property owner, she thinks there is a catch to it. Let her know that there is no trick to it. The mayor will talk to her. There are several with absentee owners. If the owner is not This is a problem. We are on a timeline. A discussion was had about the necessity of having an attorney appointed to provide service of process and notice for the absentee landowners. Mr. Harrell made a motion that once a suitable attorney is secured, he or she will be appointed at the discretion of the mayor. There was a second by Mr. Free. No opposition. The board approved the selection of a suitable attorney for service of process and notice on the absentee landowners in accordance with town ordinances and applicable state law, in order that the Town of Jackson is able to move forward with the demolition as we are under time constraints of the grant. ATTORNEY REPORT: Discussed this issue of appointing an attorney. She has discussed the possibility of handling these cases with a local attorney who expressed interest in being appointed to handle these matters. Haley Major Green will reach out to the attorney, Ms. Michelle Duncan, again in order to confirm whether she would accept the appointment and have Mayor Brown appoint Ms. Duncan to MAYOR’S COMMENTS: Mayor Brown thanks Officer Cary Quiet for his hard work and also thanks the Maintenance Department. A motion to adjourn was made by Mr. Free, second by Mr. Guillory, there was no opposition and the meeting was adjourned at 7:15 p.m.

Vacation Bible school holds ‘Snowball Mountain Challenge’ PROPOSITION NO. 1 OF 3 (MILLAGE RENEWAL)

BY MELINDA RAWLS HOWELL Contributing writer

With the theme “Snowball Mountain Challenge: Find Your Strength in God,” the Jackson United Methodist Church recently welcomed youngsters and youth helpers to Vacation Bible School 2026 to learn Bible lessons and verses through music and incorporating crafts, skits, snacks, science lab, recreation and more. VBS activities were held July 13-17 each day with a gathering at the beginning and end of each day in the church sanctuary. The alpine director of activities Susan Vidrine welcomed all and soon engaged in a conservation with puppet Ollie, the Arctic seal. She also led the students in the mountain motto/Bible verse, and the daily verse teaching them the signing for each. A collection was taken each day for the United Methodist Children’s Home and Family Services. The children also brought designated items each day for the Jackson food bank, Helping in His Name. Music activities, which included the singing, dancing and signing, were led during the week by Rhonda Tomb. As the children went from one session to another this year, the Rev. Michael Munro conducted a Bible study for each age group, often with some assistance from youth helpers acting out the story. Other stops included the science lab with popular hands-on activities there, in crafts and at recreation time. The gathering in the sanctuary before dismissal at the conclusion of each day had children reviewing the Bible lesson of the day with a video quiz. On the final day of VBS, a program was held for parents, family and friends.
