Mr. McMillin asked that the presentation of a plaque to Mr. Zeke Dixon who recently was recognized by the "Lake Charles American Press" as an Outstanding Athlete of the Year be postponed due to the fact that Mr. Dixon was in Baton Rouge playing in a high school all star game on this date.

At the request of Mr. Milner, Mr. Gus Schram of the firm of Gus Schram and Company, Ltd. (the Parish's auditing firm) presented the Police Jury's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the year ending December 31, 2000.

Mr. Schram thanked the staff for meeting the June 30^th deadline in compiling all of the financial information, particularly from all of the Police Jury's component units, which was difficult because of the extensiveness of the report. He pointed out that once all of the information was gathered, there was a short window of about six to eight weeks during which all of the information had to be combined and submitted to the Legislative Auditor by June 30^th.

Mr. Schram stated that it was always a pleasure to work with the administration and staff, and this year's effort had been one of the smoothest his firm had ever been associated with. He congratulated everyone on last year's report and receipt of the Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Governmental Finance Officers Association for the ninth consecutive year and stated that he fully expected that this year's report would be eligible for the award as well.

Mr. Schram then gave a brief overview of the report, pointing out that the overall position of the Parish was very sound and among the "upper crust" of all the parishes in the State as far as financial soundness. He pointed out that as of December 31, 2000, the Parish's long-term debt was under $26 million as compared to assets of $250 million. Mr. Schram also pointed out that expenditures had increased approximately 3.8%, ad valorem taxes had increased by 3.7%, and sales tax revenues by 5.3%, but in the event there might be a point in time when revenues decreased, there was a healthy reserve to accommodate such a decrease.

There being no questions from the jurors, motion was made by Mr. Andrepont, seconded by Mr. Moon and carried unanimously that the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the year ending December 31, 2000, be received.

President Griffin advised that no action was needed on applications for liquor and beer permits due to the fact that no applications had been submitted.

Motion was made by Mr. Andrepont, seconded by Mr. Moon and carried unanimously to approve the minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Police Jury dated June 21, 2001.

A report was given by Mr. Moon, Police Juror-District Six, with reference to on-going activities within his Police Jury district and liaison affiliations. Mr. Moon gave a synopsis of recent drainage, public works, housing, and animal control issues which had been successfully resolved. He stated that he served on the Special Service Districts Review Committee which was currently reviewing various matters.

Mr. Moon advised that the economic development study team on which he served consisted of representatives from the Parish, the City of Lake Charles, and the Port of Lake Charles and had recently discussed such issues as the Weingarten/Target litigation, the proposed Port access road, I-210/Prien Lake Road exit ramp, and joint funding for paving Nelson Road from Country Club to Gauthier Road (Police Jury - $4.5 million, City of Lake Charles - $1 million, Port of Lake Charles - $1 million, and Lake Charles Memorial Hospital - $300,000), as well as the much-needed overlay of Gulf Highway from the end of the existing improvements to the Lake Charles Regional Airport.

Mr. Moon further advised that with regard to his liaison affiliations with the Calcasieu Parish Office of Emergency Preparedness and the Communications and Emergency Response Committee, there was a need to review the current public safety two-way radio system to be assured that the Parish had dependable, clear, uninterrupted communications during times of emergency. He pointed out that the Sheriff's office had purchased a new system separate from the one which the Lake Charles Police Department was using, and the Parish needed to make certain it remained compatible in light of the fact that the Parish's system was about 14 years old and used the same band as pagers and cell phones, the use of which had increased. Mr. Moon also pointed out the need to take a look at having global positioning system devices for emergency vehicles which would fix the location of all operational vehicles and lessen the response time whether it would be law enforcement, fire protection, or ambulance service.

Mr. Moon thanked the members of the Police Jury for their support of his request for a resolution asking the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to install a planting strip between the sidewalk and the curb on Nelson Road for the safety of children walking to and from Prien Lake Elementary School, as well as the Lake Charles City Council's agreement to maintain the planting strip. He closed by saying that he had asked the Engineering Department to look at the feasibility of a pilot project to install sidewalks within two blocks of a school where students must walk down busy streets and had faxed Senator Landrieu's office asking for a search for grant money for such a project.

President Griffin thanked Mr. Moon for his report and stated that it was helpful for the jurors to learn more about what was going on in each other's districts.

President Griffin advised that action was needed on Zoning Case RZ03-023-01 which was a request by Levorel J. Moreau to rezone from A-1 (Agricultural) to C-2 (General Commercial) to allow a trenching business on Bennett Road in Ward Three, Police Jury District 9. She further advised that the Planning and Zoning Board had met on Tuesday, July 17, 2001, and voted unanimously to recommend that the request be granted with the following stipulations: (1) that the development adhere to the site plan on file with the Division of Planning and Development; (2) that a 6' wooden fence be installed along the east property line after 30 days of completion of the building; (3) that all drives and parking areas be hardsurfaced (concrete or asphalt) within six months; and (4) that the use be limited to a trenching service only.

It was moved by Mr. Andrepont, seconded by Dr. Mackey and carried unanimously that the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board be upheld with respect to Zoning Case RZ03-023-01 and that the request be granted with the stipulations outlined by the Planning and Zoning Board; whereupon, the following ordinance was adopted:
