E
This

so

commercial

A
All
right
motion
carries
item
H
approval
of
incorporative,
all
right;
competition
from
coach,
second
from
Miss,
Terry
I
think
I
need
to
read
the
whole
thing:
right:
okay,
approval
of
Cooperative
agreement
between
Ascension
Parish
government,
the
city
of
Donaldsonville,
400
000
from
Capital
outlay
funds
for
the
revitalization
of
La,
lab
baseball
field;
okay,
thank
you
coach
and,
yes,
you
have
a
question.
Okay,.
C
Four
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
the
the
city
of
Donaldsonville
is:
do
they
have
any.
C
C
C
And
how
much
of
the?
How
much
of
it
of
the.
C
I
I
We
have
some
Recreation
folks
here
who
can
nod
in
agreement.
This
is
an
active,
ongoing
project
that
we
are
working
on
bidding
out.
Currently,
it's
a
state.
It's
on
a
second,
some
of
it
alone,
State
contracts,
some
of
it
we're
gonna,
have
to
contract
out,
but
we
are
actively
working
to
begin
that
project
soon.
K
Customers
yeah,
so
the
only
question
I'm
sorry
I'm,
bringing
it
back
up,
but
so
let
me
see
so
the
city
of
Donaldsonville
is
going
to
to
distribute
the
funds.
K
Right
and
this
in
this
contract
the
the
priorities
that
would
still
be
addressed-
I'm
just
oh,
it
says
the
city
shall
administered
Capital
outlay
funds,
including
oversight
selection
of
contractors
and
submission
of
expenditures
in
the
parish,
shall
provide
approval
of
all
plans
prior
to
execution
and
allow
improvements
to
be
made
at
the
field.
So
I
was
just
I'm,
so
we're
in
this
in
this
EA
we're
going
to
give
the
city
of
Donaldsonville
the
400
they're
going
to
manage
it,
but
it
is
on
our
property,
so
we'll
we'll
also
help
oversee
it.
Correct
yeah.
I
I
A
All
right,
Mr
law,
yeah.
L
Job
I
have
a
question
part
section
number
six,
the
city
and
we
kind
of
talked
about
this
before
the
city
is
agreeing
to
hold
harmless
to
parish,
and
then
the
parish
is
agreeing
to
hold
harmless
to
City.
I
L
L
M
Typically
for
the
actions
of
each
party,
and
so
in
other
words,
each
person
is
responsible
for
their
own
actions.
So
if
the
parish
causes
some
fault,
then
they're
responsible
for
their
degree
of
fault
and
at
the
city
causes
fault
they're
responsible
for
their
degree.
It's
basically
a
comparative
fault
principle
applied
and
I
hold
harmless,
so
that
one
is
not
responsible
for
the
fault
of
the
other.
L
M
I
I
always
insist
on
a
reciprocal
Indemnity,
not
a
one-way,
so
that
comparative
fault
can
be
applied
and
that
one
person
or
one
entity
is
not
responsible
for
the
for
the
whole
degree
of
fault.
If
it's
shared.
A
Afraid
of
him
all
right
do
I
have
any
other
questions
or
objections.
All
right
motion
carries
Madam
Secretary.
Please
note
that
Mr
Robert
has
arrived
item.
I
approval
of
amendment
number
four
to
the
master
contract
for
Professional
Services,
with
Meyer
Engineers
LTD
for
the
Terry
cast
I
mean
the
Dutchtown
Library
splash
pad
to
increase
the
total
contract
amount
by
additional
9
700
for
a
new
contract
of
59
600.
G
N
Does
that
entail?
It
was
just
additional
engine,
additional
Design
Services
for
work
that
was
requested
and
they've
done,
that
work
they've
submitted
the
drawings
to
us.
We
have
those
we
own
those
now,
and
this
would
be
to
pay
for
that.
J
N
J
A
I
motion
by
Mr
Malone
song,
second
by
Miss,
kazzo
and
any
questions.
Any
objections
motion,
carries
item,
J
approval
of
renewal,
Master
Services
contract
between
Ascension
Parish
government
and
Gallo
Mechanical
Services
LLC
for
HVAC
maintenance
and
repair
Parish
facilities,
total
budget
amount
of
350
000
to
be
shared
between
two
providers.
A
O
B
O
So
we
we
just
asked
for
an
increase
to
finish
out
through
the
end
of
May,
which
was
that
year
end
of
contract
would
be
in
May
23rd.
So
we
asked
for
additional
funds,
because
this
was
our
first
time
doing
it.
So
this
would
cover
the
amount
that
was
recently
improved
for
the
next
year,
so
it's
175
for
gallo
and
175
for
corporate
mechanical
for
an
additional
year.
O
B
A
A
Item
k,
approval
of
renewal
of
Master
Services
contract
between
Ascension
Parish
and
corporate
Mechanical
Services
LLC
for
the
HVAC
maintenance
repair
of
two,
the
budget
amount
of
350
000
share
between
two
providers.
This
is
the
other
half
of
that
one.
We
just
voted
on.
I
have
a
motion
for
Mr
melanza,
a
second
from
Miss
kazzo.
Do
you
have
any
questions?
A
I
have
a
motion

a
second
from
coach.
Do
I.
Have
any
questions
any
objections,
all
right
so

Thank

Miss
Christy
approval
amendment
number
two
to
the
original
agreement
with
capital,
Staffing
DBA
admin,
Staffing
for
nursing
staff
at
Ascension,
Parish
jail
for
an
increase
to
the
contract
amount
and
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
I
have
a
motion
for
Mr
Robert.
Second,
from
Mr
Thomas
I
have
a
question
from
Mr
Lawler.
Q
Have
24-hour
maintenance?
Well
excuse
me
inmate
Care,
at
the
jail
and
who
are
running
into
staffing
issues
with
people
on
maternity
leave
or
medical
leave
holidays,
and
we
need
24-hour
coverage.
So
that's
where
that
increase
is
coming
from
it's
expensive
to
go
through
a
contract
agency.
Oh.
Q
A
I
know
now
any
other
questions,
any
objections.
All
right
motion
cares.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Approval

total
a

000
and
a
motion

and
I
have
a
second
for
Mr,
Lambert
and
I
have
a
question
from
Mr
Lawler.
P
F
F
D
D
So,
in
order
to
save
time
and
aggravation,
Lincoln
agreed
to
give
us
a
credit
for
the
amount
of
the
engineering
fee
and
in
turn
we
would
turn
around
and
give
that
value
to
Lincoln
I
mean
to
Myers
as
an
increase
to
their
contract
to
pay
for
that
service.
So
basically,
it's
just
a
pass-through
cost
to
us.
D
D
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right.
Any
other
questions.
The
objections.
All
right
motion
cares
item
o
approval
of
the
professional
selection
committee
recommendation
to
select
the
highest
scoring
respondent
to
the
request
for
qualifications,
quality
engineering
and
surveying
for
Butch,
Gore,
Park
renovations.
N
Y'all
met
our
new
one
of
our
new
project
managers.
This
is
Rachel
she's,
helping
out
with
the
recreation
department,
so
she'll
be
running
this
one.
So
this
is
to
renovate
Butch
Gore
the
softball
park,
getting
four
turf
field
infields
in
the
quad
area
there,
as
well
as
back,
stops
brick
net
posts.
That
kind
of
thing.
N
Some
some
Paving
some
parking
and
some
drainage
work
if
necessary.
Things
like
that
all
right,
okay,
cool,
all
right
and
that's-
kicked
off,
hopefully
to
to
start
this
summer
and
then
roll
right
on
and
to
be
ready
for
spring.
If
all
goes
to
plan,
okay,
Mr
Robert
has.
N
P
N
Looked
into
both
shade
and
trees
at
all
of
our
parks,
and
that
is
one
of
the
ones
where
we
had.
A
Any
other
questions
I
have
a
motion
for
Mr
malawson.
That's
it
so
far.
I
have
a
second
for
miss
kazzo.
Any
objections.
All
right
motion
carries
thank
you.
Mr
King
item
P
results
for
request
or
quotes
and
approval
to
enter
in
a
contract
with
the
lowest
responsive
quotes
submitted
by
ZZ
Construction
LLC
in
the
amount
of
99
250
for
construction
of
the
recreation
department,
maintenance
shop
located
at
Lamar
Dixon.
N
One
of
the
storage
areas
at
the
back
over
by
where,
where
they
used
to
store
the
sand
for
sandbagging
and
things
like
that,
we
are
converting
that
into
a
maintenance
shop
for
our
crew.
So
the
idea
is
to
move
everybody
from
Cinema
Park,
where
we
have
a
hard
time
containing
everything
and
where
we
end
up
having
to
move
stuff
during
Heavy
Rain
events
and
all
that
anyway,
to
Lamar
Dixon
we're
going
to
move
all
our
operations
to
Lamar
Dixon.
N
L
I
Yeah
so
facility
maintenance
and
Recreation
maintenance
are
two
different
things.
Two
different
departments
two
different
functions,
so
we
made
the
decision
that
to
convert
Santa,
Mall
Park
back
to
just
a
park
and
remove
all
that
to
where
we
move
everything.
Every
time
we
have
a
rain
event
just
made
the
most
sense,
since
we're
not
doing
sandbagging
in
that
building
anymore,
so
we're
in
the
process.
I
All
the
recreation
offices
have
moved
upstairs
in
the
gym,
since
utilities
is
no
longer
located
there
and
as
soon
as
this
project
is
done,
the
saint
Amal
park
facility
will
be
demolished
and
that
will
all
go
back
to
park
space.
That's
when
we'll
start
talking
about
the
pump
track
and
a
kayak
launch
and
those
other
things
back
in
that
back
area
will
remove
the
double
wide
office
building.
That's
there
it'll
become
a
full
park
facility
and
not
half
Surplus,
half
maintenance,
half
all
that
other
stuff.
So.
I
Facilities
maintenance
has
Carpenters,
it
has
plumbers,
it
has
electricians,
potentially
welders,
you're,
going
to
have
a
shop
where
you
have
table
saws
and
band
saws.
You
know,
Recreation
maintenance
is
typically
lawn
mowers
and
weed
eaters
and
blowers
and
sprayers
and-
and
you
know,
supplies
for
spraying
pesticides
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff
there.
It's
two
different
functions.
I
That,
and
and
generally
speaking,
Grounds
Maintenance
and
facility
maintenance
are
two
entirely
different.
Things
I
mean
that
shop
that,
when
it
gets
moved
to
Cara's
house,
will
be
a
full
functioning
shop
where
we
can
during
rain
events,
do
carpentry
work
and
build
things
and
and
be
it'll,
be
a
shop.
A
working
shop.
The
shop
at
Lamar
Dixon
is
going
to
be
primarily
for
storing
equipment
housing.
All
of
our
you
know,
stuff
out
of
the
rain
fertilizer
multi
and
pesticides.
A
Okay,
any
any
questions.
Any
objections
and
motion
carries.
Thank
you
very
much.

So

on
there,

won't
have

every

If

and

of

588

million,

157.66,
Mr,
Dean
I,
think
I.
Think
yeah
come
on
up
Mr
Dean.
B
D
D
We
have
approximately
another
150
foot
of
pipe
to
tie
in
and
that'll
give
us
where
we
can
start
tying
in
all
the
houses
now
number
two
after
they
tried
three
times
putting
it
in
the
same
place,
I
chose
to
move
it
and
have
another
salt
test
done
and
also
have
another
engineer,
give
us
a
different
design,
which
we
now
have
and
we're
currently
working
with
the
contractor
to
get
a
cost
to
do
that
because
he's
already
put
it
in
three
times
in
a
different
location.
D
K
F
G
Cagnolani
yeah
there
again,
this
is
some
an
item.
I
think
we
have
to
have
further
discussion
on
so
I
would
I
would
offer
an
objection
so
that
it
can
be
put
on
General
business
for
the
next
council
meeting
and
we
can
vet
it
more
fully.
He's.
M
In
general,
I
think
legal
should
chime
in
I
want
to
I
want
to
advise
you
that
I've
been
negotiating
with
the
contractor.
They
are
in
liquidated,
damages
at
this
point,
and
we
have
a
settlement
that
I
that
I'm
working
on
that
I
would
like
to
bring
to
you
as
well.
So
maybe
we'll
do
that
in
an
executive
session.
M
H
A
All
right
so
I
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
table
this
to
the
next
meeting
when
we
have
executive
session
about
this,
do
I
have
any

to
that
any

and
one
cent

patching
and
installation
of
a

fence.
I
have
a
motion
for
Mr
Lawler,
a
second
from
Mr
cagnolotti.
Any
question:
do
you
have
a
question?
Okay,
we.
L
It
set
up
pavement
patching
was
added
to
the
work
order
to
address
pavement
based
failure
that
developed
an
existing
traveling
suggestion
adjacent
to
new
work.
Is
it
we
I
I
drove
by
there
the
other
day
doing
if
we
got
all
that
fixed?
Is
that
fixed?
Now,
yes,
it's
been
picked
a
while
back,
maybe
there's
something
new
there.
That's
why
I
asked?
What's
that,
maybe
there's
something
new
there.
U
This
was
the
work
was
actually
done
around
the
Christmas
holidays
or
a
little
bit
after
that,
and
it's
a
portion
of
Airline
Highway
that
that
we
used
as
part
of
the
new
right
turn
lane
at
the
intersection
and
it
failed
shortly
after
we
put
traffic
on
it.
So
that's
why
they
had
to
come
patch
it.
It
was
kind
of
a
emergency
thing.
U
We
had
to
go
out
there
and
Patch
it
so
that
that
was
part
of
it
along
with
the
fence
work
and
then
the
days
was
just
because
we
had
so
much
of
a
delay
of
getting
traffic
signal
equipment
in
awesome.
U
U
U
We
would
you
know
this
is
a
a
lane
is
part
of
the
right.
The
new
right
turn
lane
of
Airline
Highway.
Whenever
it
failed,
it
surprised
all
of
us.
You
know
we
thought
it
was
going
to
hold
up
and
it
did
not.
So
it
wasn't
like
we
could
not
fix
it.
So
so
we
fixed
it
immediately,
even
though-
and
we
didn't
have
time
to
wait
for
Council
approval
on
it,
so
it
was
something
we
did
a
while
back
so.
J
U
L
We've
actually
discussed
this
a
while
back
in
transportation
through
the
years
I
know
we
had
an
executive
committee
meeting
on
it
a
long
time
ago.
I,
don't
remember
the
exact
numbers,
but
I
know
Ruth
was
there
she
might
be
able
to
chime
in
like
she's.
L
Here
today
we
had
I
think
reached
agreement
that
if
any
of
the
change
orders
were
I,
think
below
five
percent
or
maybe
even
maybe
even
10-
that
as
long
as
they
were
below
that
threshold
and
didn't
reach
a
point
that
they
went
over
that
threshold,
they
could
be
done
and
we
would
approve
them
later,
because
the
goal
was
not
to
impede
Transportation
work.
L
Basically
because
I
think
one
of
the
examples
Joey
had
used
years
ago
was
sometimes,
if
you're
laying
pipe
and
you
you've
got
a
late
pipe
below
the
road,
and
you
realize
you're,
two
or
three
feet
short.
Instead
of
waiting
on
a
change
order
taking
that
delay,
which
could
be
a
month
or
two,
they
just
order
the
extra
pipe
put
it
in
there
and
get
the
road
done.
If
it's
going
to
be
below
that
five
percent.
So.
J
U
J
A
Right
any
other
questions,
any
objections.

A
You
copy
the
whole
job
description
on
that
one
goodness,
I
have
a
motion
from
Miss
Terry,
a
second
from
Mr
kagnolotti
do
I
have
any
questions,
any
objections.
All
right
motion
carries
item
DD
approval
of
amendment
number
two
to
the
contract
with
trash
Rangers
to
increase
the
total
contract
amount
by
additional
sixty
thousand
dollars.
A
T
I,
don't
know
if
we
have
the
exact
number
of
of
increases,
but
in
the
past,
with
the
prior
contractor,
we
were
having
trouble
having
things
being
picked
up
and
now
things
are
actually
picked
up
on
schedule.
In
fact,
I
was
asking
we
haven't
had
one
complaint,
we
were
having
so
many
complaints
from
our
departments
with
with
their
trash,
just
not
being
picked
up
and
now
we're.
T
You
know
everything's
on
schedule,
which
is
you
know,
it's
a
good
thing
and
when
their
dumpsters
are
full
and
we
call
they
come,
which
was
also
different
from
the
past,
where,
if
we
call
it,
it
might
take
days
and
dumpsters
were
overflowing
and
we
were
getting
complaints
so,
but
that
doesn't
answer.
B
T
Well,
so
we're
about
to
open
the
the
recycling
center
on
the
West
Bank-
and
you
know,
that's
part
of
the
75
000
grant
that
we
got
that's
going
to
cover
a
lot
of
the
materials
a
lot
of
the
advertising.
We
also
got
an
8
000
grant
for
for
fencing.
So
when
that
opens
up
and
we're
realizing
from
the
the
East
Side
recycling
is
being
used
a
lot
more
so
than
we
anticipated.
That's
a
good
thing.
So
we're
trying
to
look
for
you
know
other
things.
I
know.
T
We've
we've
talked
to
the
chairman
about
maybe
some
other
opportunities
to
partner
with
people,
but
that's
a
significant
cost
when
we
add
that
facility,
because
those
are
huge
dumpsters
that
are
being
filled
on
the
weekends
we
were
shocked,
we
even
went
back
and
looked
at
the
cameras
and
they're
just
backed
up
filling
up
those
those
30
yard
dumpsters
and
when
we
come
in
Monday
they're
full.
So
that's
one
of
the
big
costs
associated
with
this
increase,
and
we
just
don't
know
how
much
the
other
big
increase
and
Ricky
had
talked
about
this.
T
When
we
initially
did
this
contract
is
we're
starting
a
lot
of
of
capital
work,
and
so
when
we
demolished
the
playgrounds,
when
we
did
the
Surplus
items
at
the
Armory
we're
having
a
lot
more
cost
Society
associated
with
that,
which
is
you
know,
a
good
thing,
we're
actually
moving
projects
now
and
we
just
weren't
sure
of
the
extent
of
that.
So
between
the
increase
in
the
capital,
the
the
recycling.
T
L
T
L
And
the
rate
would
be
the
same.
Yes,
absolutely
one
last
question
this
paper
more
question
for
Michael
I
know:
we've
got
a
lot
of
light
posts
down
at
some
of
our
Parks,
we
kind
of
talked
about.
Will
this
get
those
picked
up.
P
N
And
I'm
ordering
a
lot
of
these
roll-offs
and
again
previously
I
know:
we've
talked
about
it.
How
we
had
a
bunch
of
parks
where
we
didn't
feel
comfortable,
putting
dumpsters
or
they
get
overloaded,
not
get
picked
up
or
people
just
dump
all
around
it,
but
we
removed
them
we're
looking
at
putting
some
back
and
bringing
in
some
more
of
those
eight
yards
in
other
locations
as
well.
So,
okay.
A
C
Sir
I
just
like
to
give
a
shout
out
to
the
administration
for
the
work
that's
being
done
on
the
West
Bank
and
our
accent.
We
continue
to
do
the
work
and
continue
to
move
them
forward,
but
I
just
want
to
on
behalf
of
the
Paris
Western
sanction
behalf
of
Ascension
barriers,
we'd
like
to
say
thank
you
all
for
the
hard
work
and
the
work
that's
being
done
on
the
West
Bank
of
the
river.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
All
right,
any
other
questions,
I
have
a
motion
in
a
second
any
objections.
All
right
motion
carries
item
ee
approval
of
Cooperative
Endeavor
agreement
between
Ascension
Parish
government
and
the
Arc
of
East
Ascension
to
provide
funding
in
the
amount
of
fifteen
thousand
dollars
for
reimbursement
for
a
non-renewable
basis
for
the
summer
summer,
shine
day,
campaign.
P
A
T
A
All
right,
I
have
a
motion
for
Miss
kazzo,
a
second
from
Mr
Lawler,
any
questions.
Any
objections
carries
item,
GG
contract
report
of
all
contracts
and
agreements
entered
into
the
month
of
March
for
2023..
This
is
something
that
Mr
Goldsmith
and
I'm
working
on
we're
going
to
try
to
get
it
to
where
it's
a
monthly
presentation.
So
what
we
want
to
do
is
any
new
contract
that
we
enter
into
will
be
kind
of
highlighted
and
then
any
contract
that
falls
off
will
be
highlighted
as
well.
So
we
know
what
we're
gaining.
A
We
know
what
we're
losing
and
then
that
way,
it's
it's
you
know
he's
gonna,
I,
think.
Eventually
the
goal
is
to
get
a
little
small
presentation
out
of
it.
Maybe
maybe
well
so
we'll
keep
working
with
that,
but
yeah.
That's
that's
just
something
we
wanted
to
guys
to
have.
So
you
can
kind
of
start
looking
at
that,
because
I
know
that
contracts
are
important
to
everybody
up
here.
A
I
will
take
that
to
know
Joe.

Ashley.
Ashley
Barnes
does
a
great
job
of
helping
us
get
this
together.
Cinnamon,
because
once
this
leaves
a
finance
committee
Cinnamon's
going
to
take
over
and
she
Shepherds
it
through
the
rest
of
the
process
and
then
Justin
with
the
assessors
assessor's
office
helps
her
look
at
this
and
helps
us
make
sure
all
the
numbers
are
correct.
T
But
if
you
look
at
the
budget
book
real
quickly
in
in
section
I,
you
see
the
the
process.
So
once
we
approve
this,
it
goes
to
council
you'll,
have
the
introduction
of
the
millage
ordinance
and
call
for
the
public
hearing
again
cinnamon
takes
that
over.
She
makes
sure
the
public
hearing
is
done.
She
makes
sure
all
the
requirements
are
are
correct
in
2024
we're
going
to
have
a
much
different
process,
it'll
be
a
reassessment
year,
so
we
got
one
more
year
doing
this
easy
process.
T
And
if
you
look
on
page
two
of
the
the
book,
that's
where
you'll
see
the
listing
of
the
actual
millages
and
I
did
have
a
question
from
councilman
melaso.
He
had
asked
if
anything
had
changed
the
middle
The
Villages
did
not
change.
We
did
add
a
couple
from
the
road
infrastructure
districts
and
we
did
have
a
few
of
them.
Have
their
expiration
dates
extended?
T
Those
were
the
the
lighting
districts
one
through
six,
so
those
did
change
the
rest
stays
the
same
and
so
again
from
here
it
goes
to
council
and
cinnamon
will
pick
up
the
process.
G
A
