Motion Carried NEW BUSINESS: Stephanie Lemoine, an auditor from KnightMasden CPA firm, delivered the news, Congratulations, we are back on track, the audience and alderman’s board members cheered and applauded. Mrs. Lemoine said the audit was the first for Ferriday to be completed on time in several years and that the town has remained in compliance since the previous years. She stated that most folks are concerned by the findings, Lemoine said she was happy to say we went from having audits with as many as 12 to 114 findings down to just two. One finding was that unpaid ticket-sharing fees from 2021 were settled in December 2025 so everything is back in compliance. The other findings involve accounts receivable for utilities. The mayor and JCP are disconnecting non-paying customers to avoid providing unpaid services. Mrs. Lemoine stated that it is not on this administration, but it is something we have to oversee. Ms. Lemoine said everyone really worked together on this audit. Mayor Garrison and Alderman Schiele engaged in a strong disagreement regarding the selection of a police chief.

The situation ultimately resulted in Schiele being escorted from the meeting by Ferriday Interim Police Chief LaKis Bowman. In other business, Alderman Keys requested a motion to raise the garbage fees from $15 to 23.50, Keys stated he did not understand how we were paying $24,000 a month for garbage in the past and still owe $100,00, Keys said.

After town Attorney Russell Purvis said a $7,000 appraisal was unnecessary since the church is nonprofit, Banks offered $6,500, which aldermen accepted. Banks stated that the church has maintained the property for 17 years, the space is needed for parking. A request for granting Ms. Johnson owner of ReSheet by Katria Market to rent the property at 1620 EE Wallace BLVD was tabled by Alderman Keys.
