February 18, 2026 The Land Use Commission of the City of Sulphur, Louisiana, met in regular session at its temporary meeting place located at 501 Willow Street, Sulphur, LA, held at 5:30 p.m., on the 18th day of February 2026, after full compliance with the convening of said meeting with the following members present: LENORE CARROLL, Land Use Commission District 1 TROY DARBY, Land Use Commission District 2 EDDIE LEBLANC, Land Use Commission District 4 JONATHAN BRAZZELL, Land Use Commission of District 5 ABSENT - VERONICA ALLISON, Land Use Commission District 3 After the meeting was called to order and the roll called with the above results, prayer and pledge was led by Mr. Darby. Motion was made by Mrs. Carroll seconded by Mr. LeBlanc that the minutes from the previous meeting stand as written. Motion carried unanimously. Motion was then made by Mr. LeBlanc seconded by Mrs. Carroll that the agenda stand as written. Motion carried unanimously. The first item on the agenda is a resolution granting a rezone to Nayah, LLC, from Residential to Commercial to allow for future development not known at this time, for property located at southeast on ramp onto I-10 off Hwy. 1256 (property north of Fairfield). Mr. Darby stated that he was against this rezone since no one was at the meeting to answer any questions and not knowing what was going on this property caused pause. He also didnt want the 45-foot strip of property fronting Allen Street to be rezoned either. Mr. Abrahams, Zoning Administrator, stated that in the resolution it does state that the 45-foot strip would not be rezoned, and he also suggested stipulations in the resolution that only certain uses would be permitted to be placed on the property. Mr. Darby then read concerns from Kenneth Bellenger (who could not attend the meeting). Mr. Bellengers main concern was that the property shouldnt be rezoned without knowing what would be built on the property. Mr. LeBlanc stated that he agreed with Mr. Darby. He spoke to the neighborhood on Allen Street and they were concerned with the panhandle (the 45-foot strip fronting Allen Street), not being rezoned since they didnt want any extra traffic and big trucks travelling on Allen Street. Mrs. Carroll stated that Fairfield Inn gave this property owner a right of way for ingress/egress to the property and was concerned with fire truck issues. Chris Higginbotham, Allen Street, showed concern with trees/limbs falling from applicants property onto his property. He has called the owner on occasions and the owner tells him he can cut/remove the trees/limbs if he wants to. The neighborhood doesnt want any delivery trucks to go down Allen Street. The street is very narrow. This street isnt safe for kids to ride bikes and its also not safe for kids to wait for the school bus. This property is 20 feet from his sons bedroom, and his son already has trouble sleeping. Mark Duhon, Allen Street, stated that the neighborhood already has trouble with the business Kim Kool and they dont need any extra noise/traffic. A fire truck would find it hard to make it down Allen Street. There are approximately 14 neighbors that are opposed to this rezone. After discussion, motion was made by Mr. Darby seconded by Mrs. Carroll that the following resolution be adopted to-wit: RESOLUTION GRANTING A REZONE TO NAYAH, LLC, FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL TO ALLOW FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT NOT KNOWN AT THIS TIME, FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT SOUTHEAST ON RAMP ONTO I-10 OFF HWY. 1256 (PROPERTY NORTH OF FAIRFIELD).
