PUBLIC NOTICE
OUACHITA PARISH POLICE JURY
FLOODPLAINS AND WETLANDS NOTICE
NOTICE OF EXPLANATION
The Ouachita Parish Police Jury intends to carry out an action which in part may affect or be affected by the 100 year flood plain and seeks to involve the public in the decision making process. The Parish is implementing an FY 2009 Louisiana Community Development Block Grant for sewer improvements. A large portion of the project area is located within the 100 Year Flood Plain and in areas that have the potential to be wetlands, and this review is conducted in compliance with Executive Orders 11988 and 11990. It is the judgement of the Parish that the benefits of the project outweigh consideration of the Executive Order 11988 and 11990.
The proposed improvements to provide community sewer service to residences in two concentrated areas along the Louisiana Highway 139 near Louisiana Highway 594 conform to all applicable State and Federal floodplain protection standards. The other agency involved in this project is the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. It has been determined that there is no feasible alternative to this project. The Parish has not received comments relative to this proposal during the 15 day comment period following a notice published in this newspaper on February 3, 2011, and therefore the Parish will proceed with the project.
The project file with details available is located at the Ouachita Parish Police Jury, 300 Saint John Street, Monroe, Louisiana. The information may be examined Monday thru Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Comments may be submitted in person or mailed to the Ouachita Parish Police Jury, Post Office Box 3007, Monroe, LA 71210-3007. Comments will be received until the end of business on March 4, 2011. No action will be taken before that date.

The Ouachita Parish School Board met in special session on Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at six (6:00) o’clock P.M. at its regular meeting place, the Ouachita Parish School Board office.
The Pledge to the Flag was led by Board member Carey Walker.
Board member Judge Bill Norris gave the Invocation.
On motion by A. R. Sims, seconded by Carey Walker, the Board unanimously approved the Minutes of January 11, 2011 as written.
Upon the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Bill Norris moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, to amend the Agenda to add Item No. 5 under the IX. Business section (A Request from Segars Operating for Permission to Advertise for Bids on an Oil, Gas and Mineral Lease Located in Section 16, Township 18 North, Range 4 East). Motion carried unanimously.
Carey Walker moved, seconded by John Russell, that the Board amend the Personnel Agenda to exclude the appointment of the administrative position and consider in separate action. Motion carried unanimously.
Upon the recommendation of the Superintendent, John Russell moved, seconded by Bill Norris, to appoint Anthony Killian to the position of Title 1 Supervisor, effective January 31, 2011. Before his appointment, Mr. Killian was the Principal of Ouachita Parish Alternative Center. Motion carried unanimously.
On motion by A. R. Sims, seconded by Carey Walker, the Board approved the amended Personnel Agenda as presented. Motion carried unanimously.
Communications Coordinator Aline Smead asked Greg Oden, Vocal and Elementary Music Coordinator for OPSS, and Superintendent Webber to come forward and present awards recognizing fifteen outstanding vocal students from across the district who have been selected from a field of 4,000 participants. They auditioned and were selected for placement in the National Honor Choir hosted by the American Choral Directors Association National Honor Choir 2011. They will perform in Chicago at the National Conference March 9-12, 2011. Four students, Anne Marie Cash, Kelly Wall, Katie Wilson, all from Good Hope Middle School, and Paige Freeman who attends Claiborne Elementary, were among 11 Louisiana students chosen to perform in the “Children’s National Honor Choir”. Five choral members from West Ridge Middle School; Bridgette Foy, Hunter Hines, Morgan Kilpatrick, Blake Oden and Hannah Zizzi were selected for “Middle School Honor Choir”, in addition to Tristan Drummond from Ouachita Junior High School. “Women’s Honor Choir” is represented by three West Monroe High School choral members; Nikki Davis, Annamaria Hutson, and Alayna Rutledge. Ethan Breland and Mark Payton from West Monroe High School were selected for “Men’s Honor Choir”.
The Board agreed to postpone Business Item No. 2 (Athletics - Sports Media) by Randy Hammett until the next Board meeting.
Purchasing Agent Bobby Jones informed the Board that he had hoped the auxiliary gymnasium floor at Sterlington High School had not been affected by the water leak which damaged the main gymnasium floor last year, but over time the floor has deteriorated and something has to be done. The auxiliary floor damage claim was combined together with the original floor. The insurance adjuster determined at that time that the damage caused up to $107,000 in costs to repair and this amount is what the insurance company is obligated to pay. However, the quote (low bid) for the repair cost is above the insurance award of $107,000. To avoid the possibility of the Board paying the difference for the repair, Mr. Jones told the Board he would call the vendor that quoted the lowest bid and attempt negotiating a reduced price of $107,000 or the amount of the insurance estimate. If this failed, he would contact the insurance company to increase their estimate up to $115,000 (the vendors estimate for repair). He then asked the Board for permission to proceed with these negotiations. Whereby, Bill Norris moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, to grant authority to Purchasing Agent Bobby Jones to proceed with the project to repair the water damage to the auxiliary gym floor at Sterlington High School and negotiate the $115,000 bid with Dynamic Sports Construction, Inc., advising them that the insurance company has only agreed to pay $107,000 for the repair of the gym floor at SHS and if they could reduce their price to this amount. If this fails, Mr. Jones will attempt to negotiate an amount with the insurance company to accommodate the quote from Dynamic Sports Construction, Inc. up to $115,000 for the cost of the project. If these two options fail, Mr. Jones will come back to the Board for further recommendation. Motion carried unanimously.
Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher announced the QSCB projects for Calhoun Middle, Boley, Claiborne, George Welch, Lenwil, Highland, Riser, Drew, OPAC and West Ridge have been completed. There is still some work to do at Good Hope, Riverbend, Crosley, and Central, which will be started this summer. According to Dr. Coker and Dr. Webber, Sterlington Elementary will be ready for occupancy the third week in February.
Upon the recommendation of Richie Garrett, A. R. Sims moved, seconded by Carey Walker, that the Board accept the request of Segars Operating for an oil, gas and mineral lease on the property located in Section 16, Township 18 North, Range 4 East, (Stubbs Vincent Road in Swartz) containing 141.32 acres, more or less and authorize the Superintendent to seek the assistance and consultation of Argent Property Services, LLC, to advertise for bids for a mineral lease of the property, pursuant to the provisions of Subpart B of Chapter 2, Title 30, of the Louisiana Revised Statues of 1950, as amended (La. R.S. 30:151, et seq.) and other applicable law, and to take all necessary actions to allow for an award of a lease. Motion carried unanimously.
On motion by John Russell, seconded by Bill Norris, the Board accepted the low responsive bid of The Trane Company in the amount of $65,107 for a chiller at Riverbend Elementary [Bid No. 39-11] as recommended by Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher. Motion carried unanimously.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Carey Walker moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, that the Board accept the low responsive base bid of $108,260 including the add alternate bid of $30,000 for a total cost of $138,260 from Imagetek for Document Scanning (one-time cost) [Bid No. RFP 40-11].
