The Roll Call, Prayer and Pledge of Allegiance was dispensed with. Council Member Lepine deferred Agenda Item 1a(1) under Executive Session, Hanover Insurance Company versus Plaquemines Parish Government, et al, Eastern District of Louisiana Case No. 12-cv-1680 H(5)-Attorney Mike Mullin. Without objection, so ordered. There being no proclamations, Council Member Lepine moved to Agenda Item 1c, Status Report by the Parish President. Without objection, so ordered. Mr. Nungesser addressed the Council regarding FEMA projects and distributed documentation relative to the status of the remaining projects and the funds for all of the projects. He further informed the Council that the Administration is working on the loan forgiveness appeal. The President stated he will send a list of all Coastal projects and if anyone has additional projects they should contact Mr. PJ Hahn. The next CPRA meeting will be held July 16, 2014, in the Buras Auditorium; a presentation will be made at the meeting in August to add items to the State Master Plan. He stated there will be numerous introductions made today to seek funds from the Regional Planning Commission. Council Member Marinovich asked if legislation currently on the table pertaining to appropriating money for repairs to the Scarsdale/Belle Chasse Ferry Landings were in addition to funds received from Regional Planning. It was decided during a conversation between Council Member Marinovich, Council Member Lepine and Mr. Rennie Buras that the funds from Regional Planning were for a different project. Mr. Nungesser stressed the importance of passing legislation endorsing the temporary closing of a section of Highway 15; Council Member Griffin stated he will not make the introduction to close the highway. There was a discussion between Council Members Edgecombe, Lepine, Hinkley, and Guey, as well as Mr. Nungesser concerning the grass cutting of ditches and levees throughout the Parish. The Council asked why standards for the levees in the lower part of the Parish as opposed to the ones in the Belle Chasse area. Mr. Nungesser stated the USACE has increased inspections and the grass on levees now need to be between 6 and 10 inches. He further stated he welcomes the Council to come up with a plan because the grass cutting throughout the Parish is a major undertaking. He is allowing overtime pay to Parish employees; he is doing the best that he can to keep the grass cut. There were further questions by the Council inquiring as to why, suddenly after over 30 years, the ditches were not being cut. The President s response was that it is due to levees needing to be cut so often. The Council inquired as to if the Administration has ever attempted to get the West Bank Levee District involved in the maintenance of the levees. Mr. Nungesser stated he looked into it and the cost for the Levee Board to help exceeds the cost of performing the work in-house.

3 Council Member Turner requested the supporting documents for a settlement of an employee s retirement claim and the President said he would give them to him. Mr. Warren Lawrence asked for an update on the hiring of a borrow pit monitor. Mr. Leo Palazzo stated the applications were reviewed and graded and they are now ready for Council approval. Council Member Marinovich asked for copies of all applications. Mr. Michael Rodriguez asked why does the Parish need to contract out to get the grass cut, why not offer Parish employees overtime. Council Member Lepine said that would be what the Council would like to do. Council Member Turner stated that it has been President s position was that he was not allowing overtime.
