For the most part, Norwood is in good shape financially, but we must spend within our means and take care of problems as they arise. In the village of Norwood, there’s always work to be done and a project taking place…if we get a grant to finance it.
As we are a small municipality with a population of 286, we can never independently finance a project of any magnitude because of our limited income. We continuously pursue grants, and we have been very blessed to have received assistance.
We went for many years with DHH citing us for only one source of water. Finally, after applying for several years, we were approved for a Capital Outlay grant through then-governor John Bel Edwards, Senator Rick Ward, Senator Caleb Kleinpeter, and Representative Roy Daryl Adams. Since projects of this type take several years, sometimes they run over into another administration; the second water well went on line in Norwood just a few months ago. We
are happy we can now say we have two water wells.
We currently have another Capital Outlay project in place, this one for our sewer system, which will focus on the lift stations. Our system was installed in the early ’90s and is very costly to operate.
Another thorn is our streets and roads, all of which are in a bad state of repair. That is probably the hardest funding to find, as road maintenance is so costly. We recently completed a small section of asphalt overlay on Thompson Creek Road through help from the Louisiana Government Assistance Program, better known as LGAP. Through this program we are eligible to receive up to $25,000 per year…but not always. This year we received only $20,000 and added to it to complete this small section.
West Feliciana Hospital is holding a community blood drive Tuesday, February 11 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the hospital in the meeting room next to the cafeteria—walk-ins welcome. Donate blood and receive a bonus box of chocolate. All donated blood stays in the West Feliciana community to help support those in need.
As I said earlier, Norwood is always in need. We need to relocate a couple of miles of water line on Thompson Creek Road because of problems with tree roots. We have applied to Capital Outlay for this project as well and hope we will eventually receive money for it, though the funding may take years. With Capital Outlay, you have to persevere and be patient.
We recently started a project to rehab our water tower through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 and CWEF, the Community Water Enrichment Fund, which is another program through the governor’s office for any water-related projects. This work should be completed in three or four weeks.
Several years ago, we had to move out of our historic town hall building on Azalea Street to our fire station, due to the need for extensive repairs. After years of not finding money for the restoration work, we added on to the fire station with a small modern town

continued from page 1 hall. In the meantime, we received money through Rep. Adams for repairs to restore the original town hall, which was a bank during Norwood’s early years.
At one time Norwood was a bustling little railroad community with many businesses…but only two of the old buildings remain; thus the reason to preserve the old town hall.
News
One good thing: The railroad is coming back through Norwood in the near future—though the process could take a few years— and that will be a welcome sight. Due to the growth of industry in Gloster, Mississippi, the railroad will open from Slaughter, which is south of us, all the way to Gloster, which is northeast.
Another good thing: Near Norwood is a facility called “Feliciana Retreat and Conference Center,” which is a hidden gem in our community. It allows for group conferences—the Women’s Retreat is coming up in a few days, and registration is open for the children’s summer camp. I’m hoping that the public will take advantage of what FRCC offers—It has 200 acres, lakes with kayaking and swimming, a climbing wall, and ziplining.
James Hilliard, who’s been running the center with his wife the past two years, was expecting a group of bagpipers from Iowa just a few days ago, and currently on site is Base 1520, a group of Christian men. You can even have your wedding there.

And it is with great appreciation that we thank our governor and the legislature, past and present, for affording us the opportunity to receive grant money.

The Speaker Gets an Earful in East
By PaTricia STallMaNN rachal2743@gMail coM 225-721-5534
Phillip DeVillier learned a lot about East Feliciana when he brought his state-wide listening tour to Clinton a few weeks back.
The January 17 meet and greet went on for two and a half hours at the library on Bank Street, where parish officials and residents educated Louisiana’s Speaker on East’s reality: The workers are many but the harvest is lacking.
That flips the numbers in Matthew’s account of an earlier meet and greet, which DeVillier referenced:
35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages…proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless…. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
In East Feliciana Parish, the workers have long been in place.
Affecting revenue:
1) East Feliciana’s property tax rates are the lowest in the state.
2) State institutions pay no property taxes. These major employers include, in the Jackson area, Eastern Louisiana Mental Health System, Feliciana Forensic Facility, Louisiana Veterans Home, and Dixon Correctional Institute, and, in the Clinton area, LSU AgCenter–Bob R. Jones Idlewild Research Station. And, throughout the
parish, all School Board property
3) In the Jackson area, state facilities occupy 40 percent of the land.
In East Feliciana, residents have, for generations, spent their lives in the service of their neighbors, the neediest of the needy: the mentally ill, the elderly, the incarcerated, and the young. The “helpless” have long found help in East Feliciana. In the past year, residents have added to the list the needy, stray, neglected, and abused animals, many transported from other parishes and abandoned in East.
A Few of the Asks
Participants included Judge Kathryn Jones and District Attorney Samuel D’Aquilla of the 20th Judicial District, and State Representative Roy Daryl Adams, District 62, as well as police jury representatives, East Feliciana Economic Development District members, mayors and aldermen from East’s three towns and two villages, leaders of non-profits, including the drug council and the Council on Aging, the Jackson airport director, school board members, and even officials from neighboring St. Helena.
1—Rafe Stewart of Jackson, noting that state institutions “surround” his town, leaving it “nowhere to grow,” asked if the state “would be willing to give us some land for an industrial park.”
Fencing the historic town of 3,842, he explained, are DCI to the south, and, to the east, ELMHS, Forensic, and the veterans home. In the center of the town’s historic district stands Centenary State Historic Site.
DeVillier, his eyes lighting up, replied that “other states buy the prop-
erty” for an industrial park “and invite businesses to come in.
“If we already own the property, we can encourage businesses,” directly, “to buy in.
“I’d love to look at that,” he said.
2—District Attorney D’Aquilla added that those state institutions exempt from property taxes take up 40 percent of the land in and around Jackson, with several large landowners taking up the remaining 60 percent…thus Jackson’s need to ask for help finding a spot for an industrial park.
Then, reminding DeVillier that Hut 8 is locating a $12.5 billion data center in neighboring West Feliciana, which will therefore benefit from a huge increase in property tax revenue, he referred to the loss of a possible increase in sales tax revenues for both Felicianas…had the state not created an exemption during the 2024 regular session, waiving the state sales tax for data centers.
DeVillier replied that “data centers

buy a lot of technology and would not have located there without that sales tax exemption.”
3-- Jackson Mayor Jimmy Norsworthy noted that “our water quality is good in Jackson, Louisiana” but that places like Jackson, Mississippi, “get the money.
“We can’t get a water sector grant,” he explained, “because the states give the water grants to failing systems that have neglected their maintenance.” His point: The process of selecting grant recipients needs to change.
“We reworked that grant program,” DeVillier replied, asking if Jackson had reapplied after the changes.
“We apply every year,” said Norsworthy, repeating: “Our water quality is good, so we can’t qualify for the grant.”
DeVillier suggested that the town consult the state’s rural water office for a low-interest loan.

tention to the “65 to 68 people on the waiting list for meals on wheels,” many in dire need, asked about an increase in state funding.
Remarking that the request for Council on Aging funds was the first he had heard to date on his tour, DeVillier asked, “What would it take to fund you fully?”
“Seventy-five thousand more,” McManus replied, explaining that the funding is “based on millages.” And East Feliciana’s property taxes are… yes, the lowest in the state.
Louisiana, said McManus, needs to make Council on Aging funding “a priority.”
5—Police Juror Chrissie O’Quin noted the great need for help with roads and bridges: “We have 12 bridges. Pretty much we have to do it ourselves.” DeVillier agreed, reporting, “In Louisiana, over 400 bridges are out now, and the DOTD can do only 10 a year. We have to re-do the DOTD.”
6—Roderick Matthews, St. Helena’s Director of Homeland Security, reminded the speaker that funding requiring a match doesn’t work in Louisiana’s poorer parishes.
7—During comments on broadband connection, Judge Jones noted that because her own office is just “a few blocks away from the new fiber optic,” she must rely on Starlink, a system merely “adequate.”
8—When DeVillier asked about her challenges on the bench, she cited the number of people who suffer from mental illness, which is often at the root of homelessness, drug abuse, and other entanglements with the law.
“We’ve got a serious mental health crisis in Louisiana,” the Speaker agreed. “We’ve got to do better, and
by Patricia Stallmann
we absolutely can.”
9—As for education, some areas of rural Louisiana and throughout the nation “expect you either to do nothing with your life or go to college,” said Jones. “We’ve forgotten about the trades,” the great need for more career instruction and certification during high school and afterward.
“We need to create a stronger tax base,” DeVillier replied, as he had throughout the discussion, a solution to multiple problems, and one that he began citing when Mr. Stewart first asked for help establishing an industrial park in Jackson.
A related solution: state collection and distribution of taxes, “a centralized sales tax commission to collect and remit from one location…but the local governments would need to buy in.”
10—During a discussion of the “insurance crisis” in Louisiana, Mr. DeVillier observed that “if states demand certain rates, insur-
ers just leave.” Rep. Adams cited the Fortified Roof Program that the insurance industry itself has developed to encourage new construction practices and re-roofing, which could result in lower home insurance costs.
The crisis, DeVillier noted, includes medical costs and jury awards.
11—When Mary Reese, who is working to establish an animal shelter for East Feliciana, appealed for help, DeVillier at first noted the greater need of homeless and mentally ill persons, then quickly referred her to a legislator who works tirelessly on his own time to make a difference for animals.
“We have so many people who are prayerful in the legislature,” the Speaker said. Despite problems with the state’s tax structure, the infrastructure, and an insurance crisis tied in part to weather events, and despite inequities in the funding of education, “over the last year the legislature has developed “a strong sense of unity, working together as I’ve never seen
before. People who’ve served 30 and 40 years say they’ve never seen it.
“God is in control.”
DeVillier, who introduced himself as “a small business owner from Eunice,” said that he graduated from LSU in business management and married his high school sweetheart. They are raising their family of two girls and a boy “on the same farm where I grew up.”
At the beginning of the meeting, on his way to Clinton, he had been reading Matthew’s account of “Jesus going through the communities and healing people.” By meeting’s end, he had experienced East Feliciana’s unflagging work to improve life for others in a faith-based community, where, for generations, residents have worked in those same state institutions that have swallowed their land. They have served those most in need: the mentally ill, the incarcerated, the elderly. In East Feliciana, the “workers” have not been “few,” as in Matthew’s report.
As for the children: Educators— working in a system that allots education dollars based at least in part on property tax rates—after years of unflagging faith, saw their students earn a district grade of “B,” having started, over a decade earlier, close to failure. What could this school system achieve with equitable funding?
“It’s important that you get to Baton Rouge,” DeVillier said repeatedly.
“Come to a rural caucus lunch if you can’t come to a committee meeting.”
Or come in a group, he said, citing the 305 members—cities, towns, villages, and parishes—of the Louisiana Municipal Association.
A great number of those members—those hailing from East Feliciana and St. Helena—heard his invitation.
