President Jeff Naquin recognized Mr. Michael St. Romain with South Coast Gas to discuss the application with the Public Service Commission seeking authorizations for financing and cost recovery for a North City Gate Meter Station. Mr. Michael St. Romain stated that he is the President of South Coast Gas Company in Pierre Part. He stated that when lights go out then the natural gas generators are struggling some cases they are not even coming on. He stated that he would like to introduce Mr. Randy Young, who is their Public Service Commission Attorney. Mr. Randy Young stated that the issue that was before us was the growth issues on the north side of the Pierre Part system and then a lot of generators were installed so when the electricity goes out and generators kick on that’s a big draw on the system. He stated that the system wasn’t built for all that draw at one time. He added that they are trying to figure out how to adapt the system to meet that new need, so they did an analysis on the system and they said the best thing that you can do in the highest priority project is to build a new meter station on the North end of the system. He stated that they are starting to discuss with Synergy Bank on how to finance it and how to go about getting the approvals from the commission. He stated that the banks are working with a consultant that’s recommending a USDA loan guarantee program. The overall cost on the project is going to be about $1.6 Million and Synergy Bank would do a Million dollar loan with a USDA guarantee for part of it he added. He stated that they would also do a second part of the loan of about $300,000 without the USDA guarantee and Pierre Part would put up $300,000 in equity as well. He stated that the loan has not been processed yet and in order to be able to process the loan they need the Public Service Commission to say they are going to be okay with it and they will allow for the cost recovery to pay for it. The payments for that $1.6 Million is going to be around $200,000 annually and to figure out how they will pay for that they came up with a rate structure that there would be one rider added to the bills that all customers would pay because part of this is to address low growth on the system he added and there would also be another part of the rider fee that would be applicable to only those who have generators. He stated that all customers would see about a $6.00 increase to pay for the meter station and the customers who have a generator would pay an additional $6.00 a month, totaling $12.00. He included that this is the set up for the Ryder Proposal and in terms of where they are in Pierre Part rates they’re about the sixth to highest cost out of the nine. Once you add the $6.00 he stated then they will move up to the third to highest cost out of the nine and if you have a generator adding the $12.00 you will be moving up to the second to highest cost. Police Juror Myron Matherne asked if this is a set price. Mr. St. Romain stated that this is the best estimate he can give. Police Juror Jamie Ponville stated that a few months ago some people’s gas bill increased double and some may have even tripled imagine the phone calls you will be getting if someone receives a gas bill for $120.00 a month. He asked where is all the money that has been paid over the years. Mr. St. Romain stated that there is no excess earnings/money that’s just sitting there. He stated that Pierre Part has been on a rate stabilization plan at the commission for the last eight years and the commission reviews their books every year to make sure they are only earning their authorized amounts and no more. He implied that if money is over earned they must give that money back over the course of the next year with a rate decrease. He stated that the commission will want to speak to Pierre Part about the timing of when these rate increases will go into effect. Police Juror Chris Carter asked if they plan on holding a public hearing with the residents for any input. Mr. St. Romain stated that it was all published in the paper and the commissions hearing process is public. He stated that there were no interventions by anybody else in docket but that is why they are at this meeting to hear any input. The jurors thanked Mr. St. Romain for coming. 20. President Jeff Naquin requested an update on Labadieville Ballpark. The General Drainage Supervisor stated that they finished everything that was left to complete. He handed the jurors some pictures to review. President Jeff Naquin stated that the park is ready for spring ball. Ms. Chelsie Rodrigue stated that the board has met and two members haven’t made any meetings and one has asked to resign so they will need to be making some board replacements. She stated that they met at the Marais Park on LA 400 and looked at some issues over there. She stated that there is some pest control issues, fencing that’s down, two buildings that need to be torn down, and the grass needs to be cut. She stated that they do have residents that are trying to use this park but snakes are a big problem. She added that they do plan to make a prioritized list to get to the jury so they can figure out how move forward. She asked if it was safe for them to go back on the premises of the Labadieville Ballpark. President Jeff Naquin stated that they can. Ms. Rodrigue stated that she is happy to get it started. She thanked the jury for all their help with getting the park together. 21. President Jeff Naquin requested to discuss grass cutting for adjudicated properties and parish owned lots. Police Juror Michael Dias stated that the main concern is really the Community Center. He stated that if grass is put on the sidewalk from cutting they need to blow it off. Police Juror Ron Alcorn asked how many backpack blowers do we have. The General Drainage Supervisor stated that the grass crew has either one or two and one is also at the Community Center. The Parish Manager stated that they must receive a complaint to cut an adjudicated property. President Jeff Naquin recommended they spray the adjudicated lots once they are cut. Police Juror Jamie Ponville asked why are the employees not getting this done. He stated that if they are not doing their job then we need to get rid of them. The Secretary-Treasurer stated that we had one full-time employee there who resigned. The Parish Manager stated that when he was there in 2016 they only had one event a month and now they have a full pack month worth of events. He stated that it requires more than one employee. 22. President Jeff Naquin requested to discuss personal grass cutting complaint. Police Juror Charles Breaux stated that he received a grass cutting complaint and he doesn’t see anything wrong with his lot. Pictures were provided. Police Juror Myron Matherne stated that his lot is terrible and the grass is higher than the lawnmower. Police Juror Charles Breaux stated that he had to hire someone to cut it. He stated that he received his notice twelve days too late. He stated that he received his letter on the August 12th and the deadline was August 15th. He stated that he received a seven day extension and it was granted but he then asked for another and he couldn’t get it. He stated that these matters are normally put on the agenda and he feels like it is a personal attack on him. The Secretary-Treasurer stated that grass cutting does not come before this board, only derelict structures do. 23. President Jeff Naquin requested approval to adopt a resolution supporting Jeff Naquin as candidate for third Vice President of the Louisiana Police Jury Association. 24.

He stated that they put down the dirt and fill material to allow the grass to grow back. Committee member Jamie Ponville stated that the road seems to be narrower now. Mr. Joseph Savoie stated that he pulled the original widths and there is an area in the front between the main highway and the first driveway that is slightly narrower but in the back that street went all the way down to about fourteen (14) feet. He stated that they straightened the road and went down with a uniform width all the way down. Committee member Jamie Ponville stated that if this road is straight then he will pay for it. Mr. Joseph Savoie stated that they will gladly readdress it and if there’s something they can do to make the situation better they will. Committee member Jamie Ponville stated that this road doesn’t look like work that this contractor would normally do. Committee member Leroy Blanchard asked what is the timeline to get the culverts located or where they need to go on Bayou Drive. He stated that six (6) weeks ago the water was too high to open it up but now we are at record lows and if we wait any longer it’ll be too wet because it’ll be winter time. Mr. Joseph Savoie stated that he will follow up with the Parish Manager as far as getting the sizes and lengths of culverts he needs on Brule Maurin and Bayou Drive. He stated that he will get a crew out there tomorrow to identify what culverts need to be removed so when the contractor does come back into the parish on Monday he can get a separate crew out there to start cutting that. Committee member Jamie Ponville asked if there is anything further on the Lee Drive dips. Mr. Joseph Savoie stated that he did let the contractor know he has to hold that unit price to his unit contract price. He stated that the contractor did agree to that so they will revisit it with him and let him reprice it according to the unit prices that are approved already under his contract and then they will bring it to the Jury for approval. Chairman Ron Alcorn stated that based off the program itself, we might have at least eleven (11) outstanding roads that have not been milled or overlaid. 26. Committee member Leroy Blanchard offered a motion, seconded by Mr. Jamie Ponville, “THAT, there being no further business to come before the Road and Bridge Committee, the meeting be adjourned.” This motion was unanimously adopted.

SOLID WASTE Committee Meeting Of the Assumption Parish Police JurY Wednesday, August 26, 2026 4:49 O’clock p.m. 1. Committee members recorded as present were: Mr. Jamie Ponville, Chairman; Mr. Jeff Naquin, Mr. Chris Carter, Mr. Leroy Blanchard, Mr. Michael Dias Other Police Jurors recorded as present were: Mr. Charles Breaux, Mr. Myron Matherne, Mr. Ira Patureau, Mr. Ron Alcorn 2. Chairman Jamie Ponville recognized the Mr. Bryan Boudreaux with Waste Depot to discuss outstanding complaints. Mr. Bryan stated that the floor is theirs and he is there to answer any questions. Committee member Jeff Naquin asked if they are making an honest effort to pick up the six (6) yards now instead of the four (4) in the previous contract. Mr. Boudreaux stated that they absolutely are. Committee member Jeff Naquin stated that he had an issue down Quail Street but it was rectified and the pile was picked up last week, a resident had a dumpster in their yard and an icebox to be picked up by Waste Depot. However, it wasn’t picked up the first time and he’s thinking maybe Waste Depot thought that would go in the dumpster but they did end up getting it picked up. Mr. Boudreaux stated that there may be some miscommunication sometimes with employees but at the end of the day it was picked up. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that they are under contract to pick up things like this and instead of waiting another two (2) weeks to pick up these items residents end up just getting rid of the items because they don’t want the eye sore there anymore. He stated that they pick up six (6) yards and what he would like to see in the reports they send back to the jurors is an estimated yardage of what is still left on the pile. Mr. Boudreaux stated that it was told that he was there due to complaints and he asked for a list of what the complaints were, but it sounds like the jury is going to something else. He asked what are we discussing. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that he just asked a question and he would like for Mr. Boudreaux to answer it. Mr. Boudreaux stated that there is no way for them to be able to estimate what is left on the ground. He stated that he doesn’t see how that would help if they guesstimate what is left, when they are telling them the amount being picked up. He asked what is the reasoning of them needing this information. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that if they gave this information then they can let residents know exactly how many pickups and everything will be gone. Mr. Boudreaux stated that then he will be held to that. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that we just need an estimate. Mr. Boudreaux stated that they can estimate the six (6) yards by what the bucket grabs and it would be very difficult to estimate what is left on the ground. He stated that this would take a lot of their time away from picking up the materials. Police Juror Myron Matherne stated that he was disappointed about the situation that arose on Timothy Street. He stated that the residents were tearing down a shed in the back yard and they were picking up then just stopped. He stated that they put a dumpster to help them out. Mr. Boudreaux stated that he is trying to understand what Mr. Matherne’s complaint is because that pile is an out of spec pile. He stated that they do not pick up demolished houses. He stated that this makes them look bad and like they are not doing their job when the jury says they have complaints but the complaints they are talking about is out of their scope of work. Committee member Chris Carter stated that he had a couple of piles that were questionable and were not in the contract to be picked up but Mr. Boudreaux went back and serviced those piles. Mr. Boudreaux stated for different situations they do not mind helping out but they can not pick up demolition because they would end up covering that bill. He stated that they can not sustain demolition, that they would be out of business. Committee member Leroy Blanchard asked if they are putting door hangers on residents that have out of spec piles. Mr. Boudreaux stated that they were, but they haven’t been doing this recently. He stated that for the most part they have just been communicating with residents and jurors to let them know. He let the jury know that if they would like for door hangers to be put they can put this back in place. Committee member Leroy Blanchard stated that he thinks this should be put back into place because a lot of residents only use this bulk waste service maybe once or twice a year. He stated that with the door hanger in place they can call and find out why their pile was not picked up. Mr. Boudreaux stated that they will implement this back in. Police Juror Charles Breaux asked if he can look at the pile on Louis Lane and give him a price for this to be picked up. He stated that this pile has been there for years. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that his complaint was Texaco Street because it took forever to pick this pile up because they said it was too far away from the road. He stated that nothing was moved any closer and the next pickup half of the pile was picked up. Mr. Boudreaux stated that this is not true that Mr. Ponville actually moved it. Mr. Ponville stated that they actually picked it up before he could move it. Mr. Boudreaux asked what was able to be reached was picked up correct. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that it was picked up after being missed three (3) times. Mr. Boudreaux stated that this is not true. Chairman Jamie Ponville stated that he is absolutely correct and that is what happened and thanked him for his service. 3. Committee member Jeff Naquin offered a motion, seconded by Mr. Michael Dias, ”THAT, there being no further business to come before the Solid Waste Committee, the meeting be adjourned.” This motion was unanimously adopted.
