ORDINANCE NO. 8941
AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING A TEMPORARY SPEED LIMIT AND NO WAKE ZONE FOR WATERCRAFT ON A PORTION OF BAYOU DARBONNE IN OUACHITA PARISH, LOUISIANA; AND FURTHER PROVIDING WITH RESPECT THERETO.
WHEREAS, the Ouachita River at Monroe is approaching its flood stage of 40 feet and is expected to crest later this month near or above flood stage
WHEREAS, residents along Bayou Darbonne have asked the Ouachita Parish Police Jury to limit boat traffic in the area around their homes in order to minimize the damage to their property and the banks of said Bayou caused by the current potential flood situation; and,
WHEREAS, the Ouachita Parish Police Jury finds that while the precedent of past floods indicates that a prohibition of boat traffic on Bayou Darbonne is not warranted by the present river levels, the establishment of a temporary speed limit and “no wake zone” in the more developed areas along Darbonne Bayou does offer an opportunity to reduce flood damage to residential structures and property while imposing only a minimum burden on the boating public;
NOW, THEREFORE:
BE IT ORDAINED by the Ouachita Parish Police Jury in legal and regular session that all watercraft utilizing Bayou Darbonne from the La. Highway 143 Bridge to the mouth of Darbonne Bayou at the Ouachita River from this date until this Ordinance is rescinded shall be prohibited from traveling faster than idle speed. “Idle speed” shall be defined as a speed producing a wake of less than two inches or five (5) mile per hour, whichever is less;
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that this Ordinance shall not apply to watercraft operated by emergency personnel in their official capacity, including law enforcement officers and employees of the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries;
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that violations of this Ordinance shall be punished by a fine of not more than Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($500.00);
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that due to the state of potential flooding along the Ouachita River presently existing, and predicted for the immediate future, introduction and Public Hearing of this Ordinance are waived, and this Ordinance shall become effective immediately upon adoption.
The Ordinance was submitted to a roll call vote and the vote thereon was as follows:

The following resolution was offered for adoption by Mr. Smiley, seconded by Mr. Jackson:
RESOLUTION NO. 09-83
A RESOLUTION PROVIDING FOR ANNUAL CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATE OF LOUISIANA REGARDING THE OFF-SYSTEM BRIDGE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM.
WHEREAS, the Code of Federal Regulations as enacted by the United States Congress mandates that all structures defined as bridges located on all public roads shall be inspected, rated for safe load capacity and posted in accordance with the National Bridge Inspection Standards, and that an inventory of these bridges be maintained by each State; and,
WHEREAS, the responsibility to inspect, rate and load post those bridges under the authority of the Ouachita Parish Police Jury in accordance with those Standards is delegated by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to the Ouachita Parish Police Jury;
NOW, THEREFORE:
BE IT RESOLVED by the Ouachita Parish Police Jury in legal and regular session that the Ouachita Parish Police Jury (herein referred to as the Parish) does hereby certify to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (herein referred to as the DOTD) that for the period from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009:
The Parish has performed all interim inspections on all Parish owned or maintained bridges in accordance with the National Bridge Inspection Standards.
All bridges owned or maintained by the Parish have been structurally analyzed and rated by the Parish as to the safe load capacity in accordance with AASHTO Manual for Maintenance Inspection of Bridges. The load posting information that has been determined by the LADOTD for all bridges where the maximum legal load under Louisiana State Law exceeds the load permitted under the operating rating as determined above has been critically reviewed by the Parish. Load posting information has been updated by the parish to reflect all structural changes, and obsolete structural ratings or any missing structural ratings.
All Parish owned or maintained bridges, which require load posting or closing, are load posted or closed in accordance with the table in the DOTD Engineering Directives and Standards Manual Directive No. 1.1.1.8. All DOTD supplied load-posting information concerning a bridge has been critically reviewed by the Parish Engineer prior to load posting.
All bridges owned or maintained by the Parish are shown on the attached list in the format specified by the DOTD. Corrections to data supplied to the Parish by the Parish by the LADOTD are noted.
These stipulations are prerequisites to participation by the Parish in the Off-System Bridge Replacement Program.

The following resolution was offered for adoption by Mr. Smiley, seconded by Ms. Moore:
RESOLUTION NO. 09-84
A RESOLUTION URGING THE LOUISIANA CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION AND THE UNITED STATES HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES SECRETARY TO WORK TOGETHER TOWARDS A COMPROMISE CONCERNING LOUISIANA’S FEDERAL MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PERCENTAGES (FMAP), AND TO IMPLEMENT A FREEZE OF LOUISIANA’S FEDERAL MEDICAID RATIOS AT A RATE COMPARABLE TO OUR HISTORIC AVERAGES FOR A PERIOD LONG ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE FORMULA TO NORMALIZE.
WHEREAS, the Louisiana Secretary of Health and Hospitals has announced that based on the Federal Medical Assistance Percentages (FMAP), Louisiana will be reduced from an 80 percent stimulus federal match to a 63 percent rate in January 2011; and
WHEREAS, this reduction in the FMAP stimulus federal match would reduce Louisiana’s share by an estimated $700 million annually, which would have a potentially devastating impact on the solvency of the Medicaid program in Louisiana; and
WHEREAS, the FMAP formula does not recognize Louisiana’s temporary artificial inflation in per capita personal income growth as a result of the increased economic activity resulting from the four major hurricanes which have struck the state in the previous five years; and
WHEREAS, twenty-seven percent of Louisiana’s population relies on Medicaid for their health care, including many of the state’s most vulnerable citizens such as children with disabilities and the elderly; and,
WHEREAS, a federal funding loss of this magnitude would require the state to make drastic changes to its health delivery programs, including elimination of some or all optional services or programs which would greatly affect residents in Ouachita Parish and in the rest of Louisiana; and
WHEREAS, among the fifty states, Louisiana has historically ranked at or near the bottom in health-related statistics, strongly indicating a need for increased medial benefits and health care;
NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Ouachita Parish Police Jury, acting as governing authority of said Parish,
SECTION 1. That this Police Jury hereby urges the Louisiana Congressional Delegation and United States Health and Human Services Secretary to work together towards a compromise concerning Louisiana’s Federal Medical Assistance Percentages (FMAP), and to implement a freeze on Louisiana’s federal Medicaid ratios at a rate comparable to our historic averages for a period long enough to allow the formula to normalize.
SECTION 2. That the Recording Secretary is hereby requested and authorized to send a certified copy of this resolution to the Secretary of the U. S.
