RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, notification has been received that application for a Department of the Army Permit has been made to the U.S. Corps of Engineers, and application for a Water Quality Certification (WQC) has been made to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality by Calcasieu Parish Gravity Drainage District No. 8 of Ward 1 to excavate material for the construction of a residential drainage ditch and maintenance road. Preliminary determinations have shown that approximately 0.20 of an acre of wetlands will be impacted from the dredging operation. The proposed project will be located within an area approximately 1,256 feet long and 30 feet wide. Approximately 5,000 cubic yards of native topsoil will be excavated for the proposed drainage operation and deposited on an off-site, non-wet area. Said project is located in Section 1, Township 9 South, Range 9 West off of North Perkins Ferry Road from its conjunction with Highway 378, and approximately 6.0 miles northerly from Lake Charles, in Calcasieu Parish; and

WHEREAS, the staff of the Division of Planning and Development has evaluated the proposal of Calcasieu Parish Gravity Drainage District No. 8 of Ward 1 relative to its compliance with current parish ordinances and provisions, such as zoning classification, flood zone regulations, coastal zone regulations, and required development permits, as well as its impact on the Parish Transportation System; and

WHEREAS, upon completion of evaluation, the staff of the Division of Planning and Development concluded there is no cause for objection to the permit application based on parish ordinances and provisions, provided a development permit is obtained from the Parish Division of Planning and Development prior to commencement of the project.

NOW THEREFORE,

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE POLICE JURY OF CALCASIEU PARISH, LOUISIANA, convened in regular session on the 19^th day of October, 2000, that it does hereby indicate no objection to the proposal of Calcasieu Parish Gravity Drainage District No. 8 of Ward 1 to excavate material for the construction of a residential drainage ditch and maintenance road, provided said work meets with the rules and regulations of the Corps of Engineers and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, and approvals are received from all appropriate state and federal agencies, and further, that a development permit is obtained from the Parish Division of Planning and Development prior to commencement of the project. Preliminary determinations have shown that approximately 0.20 of an acre of wetlands will be impacted from the dredging operation. The proposed project will be located within an area approximately 1,256 feet long and 30 feet wide. Approximately 5,000 cubic yards of native topsoil will be excavated for the proposed drainage operation and deposited on an off-site, non-wet area. Said project is located in Section 1, Township 9 South, Range 9 West off of North Perkins Ferry Road from its conjunction with Highway 378, and approximately 6.0 miles northerly from Lake Charles, in Calcasieu Parish.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the no objection position of the Police Jury in this permit application is based solely on the evaluation of the parish staff of the project's effect on current parish ordinances and provisions.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a study on the environmental impact of the aforementioned project has not been made due to the lack of expertise of the parish staff to accomplish such a study, and the Police Jury requests that agencies and/or individuals with such expertise make an environmental review of said project and forward their findings to the U.S. Corps of Engineers.

THUS PASSED AND ADOPTED on the date above inscribed.

President Mackey advised that a report would be received at this time from staff relative to efforts toward development of a sewerage ordinance as a result of discussion with various interested groups, as identified by the Police Jury at its regular meeting on September 7, 2000.

Mr. Vickers reported that a meeting with the sewer installers and manufacturers was held on October 11, 2000, and approximately ten representatives attended. Mr. Vickers advised that it was decided that a smaller group consisting of two manufacturers and two installers would work better, and the staff was asked to develop a ballot/selection process to select the four representatives of the industry, with a meeting having been scheduled for October 25, 2000. Mr. Vickers further reported that the Board of Realtors had selected representatives to meet with the staff, and a tentative meeting with them was scheduled for October 24, 2000.

Mr. Vickers advised that the staff had received very good cooperation in this endeavor, and one of the problems that would be faced was that the soil in Calcasieu Parish had too much clay which would make it difficult to get percolation in some areas.

Motion was made by Mrs. Griffin, seconded by Mr. Andrepont and carried unanimously to receive the report given by Mr. Vickers on this date.

Upon motion made by Mr. Manuel, which was duly seconded by Mr. McMillin and carried unanimously, the following resolution was adopted: (The property referred to in the resolution was originally donated to the Parish in February, 1972, for use as a public park and subsequently transferred by donation to Community Center and Playground District No. Four of Ward One for the same use.)

RESOLUTION

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE POLICE JURY OF CALCASIEU PARISH, LOUISIANA, in regular session convened on the 19^th day of October, 2000, that it does hereby approve and authorize the President of the Police Jury to execute an Act of Donation between the Police Jury, H.C. Drew Manuel Training School, and the Southern Belle Estates I and II Homeowners Association, which provides for the transfer, donation, and conveyance of property to said Homeowners Association, described as:

Lot 9 of Block 2 of Southern Belle Estates, a subdivision of the East half of the Southwest Quarter (E 1/2 of SW 1/4), the Northwest Quarter of the Southwest Quarter (NW 1/4 of SW 1/4), the Southwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter (SW 1/4 of NW 1/4) of Section 20, Township 8 South, Range 8 West, Louisiana Meridian, as per plat recorded in Plat Book 22 at Page 4 and bearing File No. 1212357 in the office of the Clerk of Court of Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT it is acknowledged that the Act of Dedication, dated February 28, 1972, had a reversion clause wherein the ownership of the property would revert back if the property ceased to be used and maintained as a public park.

THUS PASSED AND ADOPTED on the date above inscribed.

Mr. Moon asked that Ms. Paige LeBeau, Director of the Calcasieu Parish Library System, be recognized as being in attendance at the meeting on this date and for an excellent presentation which she recently gave at St. Michael's Episcopal Church.

While waiting for 6:00 p.m. and the action scheduled for that time, an informal discussion was held with reference to various items on the agenda on which the Police Jury had already taken action.

The hour being 6:00 p.m., President Mackey advised that a public hearing would be held as a result of notice provided to the owner of the property described below, in accordance with Article II, Chapter Six of the Calcasieu Parish Code of Ordinances, ordering said owner to show cause as to why the structure on said property should not be condemned:

•3538 H. Broussard Road (S 15 acs of - W ½ SW NE Section 2, Township 9 South, Range 10 West, less 7 acs), Sulphur area of Ward Six (one manufactured home) (Police Jury District 14)

Mr. Wes Crain, Assistant Director of Development, advised that this property was owned by Mr. Harmon Joseph Broussard. He further advised that in 1997 the Parish had received some complaints regarding junk and other code violations and upon investigation, the staff had verified the violations and had sent notices to Mr. Broussard who had met with Mr. Crain regarding the mobile home. Mr. Crain stated that Mr. Broussard had requested that he be allowed to repair the mobile home to allow his daughter to live there, and this request was granted; however, no permit had ever been obtained to repair the structure.

Mr. Crain showed pictures of the property and pointed out that some of the siding had been pulled off of the trailer, and the insulation was exposed. Mr. Crain stated that he thought Mr. Broussard had tried, but the trailer had been in poor condition for quite some time, and the Parish had received constant complaints from individuals in that area. Mr. Crain pointed out that an inspection by Mr. David Hooper, Code Enforcement Officer, had shown that the inside of the mobile home was in good shape, but the exterior was the problem. Mr. Crain also stated that Mr. Broussard had asked that he be given 60 days to make the necessary repairs to the mobile home, and it was the staff's recommendation that his request be granted with a re-evaluation of the situation after the 60 days.

Mr. McMillin, in whose district the property was located, stated that he did not like to tear anybody's house down, but the property had been in deplorable condition for a long time. He pointed out that parish ordinances required 80 feet of road frontage for a dwelling, and Mr. Broussard only had about 59 feet.

Mr. Crain stated that this was a legitimate question, and the staff would have to check the records in the Tax Assessor's office to determine if Mr. Broussard had sold some of his property, because he could not obtain a permit without the necessary footage. Mr. Crain further stated that Mr. Broussard had indicated that he intended to rent the trailer to his brother-in-law.

Mr. Harmon Joseph Broussard (owner of the subject property), 3538 Harmon Broussard Road, Sulphur, appeared before the Police Jury and explained that he had dedicated a right-of-way to the Parish one-fourth of a mile in length which extended to the corner of his property; however, his neighbor across the street did not want the road blacktopped all the way to the end, so the blacktopping did not extend the full length of the right-of-way.

Mr. Broussard spoke of several hardships he had experienced, i.e. divorce, death of a son approximately 15 years ago, his health problems related to diabetes and high blood pressure. He stated that his monthly income was $555, and he worked odd jobs to make money, but there were some days he could not work because of his health problems.

Mr. Broussard stated that he had sold the trailer to his former brother-in-law who had borrowed money to make the repairs, but he had stopped upon receipt of the notice from the Parish of the condemnation hearing. Mr. Broussard reiterated his belief that the right-of-way extended the length of his property and stated that he had always had problems with his neighbor, Mr. Johnson (the complainant), ever since he (Mr. Broussard) had started selling his property which he would not have done had he not needed to.

Mr. Manuel asked how long the trailer had been on the property, and Mr. Broussard stated that he had moved it there in 1991 and had lived in it a while but when he put his house in, he moved the trailer to the side, but it was still on the same property. Mr. Manuel asked if the person who had bought the trailer had the money to make the repairs, and Mr. Broussard's former brother-in-law advised that he did, and it would take him 60 to 90 days to repair it, depending on the weather.

Mr. Andrepont questioned the purpose of bringing up the road frontage issue at this point, since the trailer had been out there for nine years. Mr. Crain explained that the only reason for bringing it up was that Mr. Broussard had the house on the property, and the trailer had never been permitted which would require 80 feet of road frontage for installation of a mechanical sewer system, or 160 feet for two units.

Motion was made by Mrs. Treme and seconded by Mr. Manuel to allow Mr. Broussard 90 days to make the necessary repairs to the mobile home and if not done in 90 days, that the mobile home be condemned.

Mrs. Treme then amended her motion, and Mr. Manuel accepted the amendment to allow the trailer to be permitted under existing conditions since it had been located on the property for as long as it had.

Mr. Ray Johnson, 3541 Harmon Broussard Road, Sulphur, and his wife Martha, appeared before the Police Jury. Mr. Johnson stated that Mr. Broussard's house had been permitted in December of 1997 and that Mr. Broussard had told the Parish at that time that he was going to repair the trailer, yet it had been sitting there for over three years, and it was falling apart. Mr. Johnson stated that Mr. Broussard only had 59 feet of frontage, according to the Tax Assessor's records, and the Engineering Department had indicated that the right-of-way was a private right-of-way and that the Parish's jurisdiction stopped at the end of the blacktop.

Mr. Johnson stated that Mr. Broussard's property was becoming a junk pile directly in his (Mr. Johnson's) front yard, and he distributed photographs of pictures taken from his front door.

Mrs. Johnson stated that one of their main concerns was the continual moving in of structures, none of which were finished, and that because of the subdividing of the property and depletion of road frontage, Mr. Broussard only had 59' of frontage.

Mr. Johnson stated that Mr. Broussard had lived in the house two years but never moved his belongings out of the trailer, and he felt he had been afforded plenty of time.

Mr. McMillin stated that he could see both sides of this issue and could understand Mr. Johnson's desire to keep his property value up, but he also sympathized with Mr. Broussard.

In answer to a question by Mr. Collins, Mr. Hooper stated that the trailer had been left on the property for storage, and the Parish had not pursued that because Mr. Broussard had said he would sell the trailer at a later date. He pointed out that the house had replaced the trailer, and technically the trailer was there illegally. Mr. Hooper also stated that Mr. Broussard had subdivided his property three times and was down to 59 feet of road frontage but before he subdivided, he had enough frontage to allow both structures.

Mr. Crain pointed out that Mr. Broussard had a large tract of land, but what was reduced during the subdividing was the frontage along the road and while he met the land size requirements, he apparently did not meet the frontage requirements.

Mr. Broussard stated that he had 338 feet of frontage remaining based on the easement he had originally signed, and the Parish had not blacktopped the entire length of the road. He also stated that he had intended to get rid of the trailer and then could not fix it because he had gotten sick and had no income.

Mr. McMillin expressed his concern about the precedent the Police Jury might be setting and pointed out that there was more than just one issue involved because of the road frontage question.

Mrs. Treme pointed out that Mr. Broussard could come back before the Police Jury to ask for a zoning variance to allow the mobile home to remain on the property, and the amendment to the motion on the floor was withdrawn.

A roll call vote was then taken on the motion on the floor which was to allow Mr. Broussard 90 days to make the necessary repairs to the mobile home and if not done in 90 days, that the property be condemned, and the result was as follows:

YEAS: Mr. Andrepont, Mrs. August, Mr. Clement, Mr. Collins, Mr. Danahay, Mrs. Griffin, Mr. Landry, Mr. Manuel, and Mrs. Treme

NAYS: Mr. Derbonne, Mr. Kleckley, and Mr. McMillin

ABSENT: Mr. Breaux and Mr. Moon

NOT VOTING: President Mackey

The vote being nine (in favor) to three (against), President Mackey declared the motion as having carried; whereupon, the following ordinance was adopted:
