SHOULD WE PAY FOR A FREE FERRY TO AVOCA ISLAND?
When the St. Mary Parish Council meets tonight, they will appoint a committee to study whether taxpayers should continue to pay more than $270,000 a year to provide free ferry transportation to Avoca Island, a 16,000 acre virtually uninhabited private island near Morgan City.
There is only one resident on the island, a care taker. Additionally, it serves as the site for a private hunting club, as well as various oil and gas interests.
St. Mary Parish Councilman Kevin Voisin began the discussion on the matter last month, when he introduced an ordinance to suspend parish operations of the ferry on Dec 31st of this year. However, at that same meeting, he later postponed the ordinance indefinitely, after hearing arguments from the care taker, and a group of camp owners and concerned citizens.
At that meeting, Voisin and the other members of the Parish Council agreed to appoint a committee that would have 180 days to offer solution(s) on what to do with the cable ferry that moves from Morgan City to the island, using cables which run underwater. Its hours of operation are 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, rain or shine.
Voisin said that the money it costs to operate the ferry, which Parish President Paul Naquin estimates at about $46 a passenger, could be better spend on parish infrastructure elsewhere, like roads. “This does not include the liability insurance we have to carry on that ferry, in case someone gets hurt, which this year cost us around $72,000,” he said
Voisin’s argument ignited fire from the care taker of the island, Jim Bodin.
Bodin said there are three cattle operations, along with oil and gas operations. Also, he said 60 people use the ferry to go their hunting camps. “Politicians say doors are open – has anyone come to speak to us,” he said.
Bodin also argued the island is the link for the direct natural gas line feeding the City of Morgan City. Bodin lives on the island and is employed by Avoca, Inc, a private company.
Clay Toups of Delta Operating Corporation, said his company has operated a gas well on Avoca Island for the past 20 years. “Can’t you cut the hours of operation down?” Toups asked. He said his company has paid $225,000 in property tax over the past 20 years.
Jude Cloutier, a commercial property owner, said his barge fleeting operation, “would have to shut down if the ferry shuts down.”
“Then, I would have to see a lower property assessment,” he said.
“I see you building a cheap low level bridge, that could open up miles of deep-water access, and make money for the parish,” he said.
Cloutier suggested the parish could build a bridge over nearby locks, which are only 75 feet wide. “There is a lock operator there all day opening and closing the locks. He could open and close the bridge as well, similar to what’s done every day at the Harvey Canal,” he said.
Parish Councilman Logan Fromenthal said that he sees the parish “spending and not getting anything in return. However, all information needs to be placed on the table before any decisions are made.”
Parish Councilman Gary Duhon said he thought the abrupt proposal to shut-down the ferry was “a railroad job. I want to see something happen over there – some development,” he said.
No one from Avoca Inc was present during the Council meeting last month.
However, Duhon commented in the wake of a letter from Avoca Inc President Robert Baird, who informed the Parish Council that the Avoca Board may have an interest in “reopening discussion regarding development on Avoca Island.”
Baird is an executive vice president for Whitney Bank, whose main headquarters are in New Orleans.
Parish President Paul Naquin took issue with Duhon for having met with Avoca Inc, without him, and in light of the fact that he indicated his interest in meeting with Avoca, to Bodin.
Duhon said that in meeting with Avoca, he “wasn’t looking for a pat on the back.”
“I want to make Morgan City and Amelia everything that Houma and Thibodaux is,” he said.
Naquin said, “So do I.”
After the meeting Naquin suggested the parish could take the money it is spending on operating the ferry, and bond it over 15 to 20 years. “This could generate a small amount of money to build a small bridge over the locks,” he said.
But Voisin questioned, “Why build a bridge to a hunting club?"
“If Avoca has this kind of money, why don’t they purchase the ferry from us. Frankly, another study about the ferry is not the answer,” he said.
Documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission define Avoca Inc. as a “passive royalty company that derives most of its income from royalties, bonuses and delay rentals under oil and gas leases covering its Avoca Island acreage, seismic permits and interest on its investments.” SEC records indicate Avoca Inc has owned Avoca Island since 1931.
Also, those same documents also show that in March of 1994, Avoca Inc. had on hand $1.2 million in cash, but a total of $4.424 million in assets.

HISTORICAL COMMISSION CONCERNED ABOUT TRUCKS
By: Howard J Castay, Jr.
The chairman of the historical district here is worried cane trucks could wreck into more than 40 white lampposts which are planted in the middle of the City of Franklin’s Main Street, while the city’s biggest sugar cane farmer disagrees.
Judy Allain supports an audience that prohibits cane trucks from travelling down Main Street.
Chairman of the Historical District Commission of the City of Franklin, Allain expressed her support for the prohibition during a City Council Meeting where leaders were presenting a new ordinance that would prohibit all oversize vehicles from travelling down the thoroughfare, as some members of the council argued the previous ordinance discriminated against cane farmers, because they were the only ones mentioned.
Allain explained her concerns are great during high traffic periods, when the truck drivers have to “negotiate tight spaces,” along what she calls, “the great white way,” in describing the lampposts.
Allain said the route has 38 original lampposts and an additional 17 lampposts that the historical commission recently added “we need to preserve what is important to the city,” she said.
“It’s time we stand up for what we hold dear, and do all we can to protect it,” she said.
Reginald Thomas of Sterling Sugars, the city’s largest cane farmer, was also at the meeting although he did not speak.
Afterword, Thomas said that none of the 26 cane trucks that he maintains, have turned over, or wrecked along the historical area. “While we appreciate Ms. Judy Allain and her different committee members looking at what they feel is best for the area, however we did not know that tourist dollars are more important that the tax and payroll dollars we generate within the City of Franklin,” Thomas said.
“Downtown Main Street is part of La Hwy 182, a state highway, and therefore no one can prohibit any vehicles from travelling thru it,” he said. Sterling Sugars of Franklin owns 26 cane trucks during grinding season.
Also present with Thomas that night was his brother Sidney, who also commented after the meeting. He said that their company pumps a tremendous amount of money into the Franklin and St. Mary Parish economy. “Last year, our fuel bill alone for diesel gasoline was $180,000,” Thomas said.
“We only need one person to run Franklin here, not a committee,” Reginald Thomas said.
“There is no proof that our trucks are tearing up this road,” he said.
According to the minutes from last month’s council meeting, the issue arose after the city council had received an opinion from State Attorney General Buddy Caldwell .
City Attorney Vincent Borne said the opinion state there are two problems with prohibiting the cane trucks from travelling down Main Street . One problem is that the ordinance intends to regulate or impose additional regulations on a state maintained highway and municipality is without authority to do. The second is that it applies, as it is written, to only one industry – cane farmers.
Councilman Kenny Scelfo said he agrees that there are problems. “Regulating them (cane farmers) extensively, adds expense and burden to the farmers and their workers …the ordinance is not justified.”
Meanwhile, Franklin Mayor Raymond Harris said there will be no enforcement prohibiting the cane farmer from using the highway. “There is going to be dialogue between the city, the state Department of Transportation and Development and the cane farmers to hopefully work out the situation. The conclusion has already been made that the ordinance as it is will not work,” he said.
Thomas said he expects the City Council to take up the issue again in December, as the proposed ordinance to prohibit all “overweight vehicles,” did not pass.

YOUTH SUMMIT NOV 22ND IN BALDWIN
Empowering young adults and informing their parents about Louisiana’s free health care insurance for kids and families is the focus of an empowerment summit called Hype III, this Saturday at the West St. Mary Civic Center.
Rev. Craig Matthews of The Bayou Teche Community Health Network, said the event is free and open to St. Mary and Iberia Parish Youth between the ages of 13 to 19, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
“It is critical to the long term health and wellness of our young people, to insure that every eligible child in this great state has an opportunity to receive appropriate health care,” Matthews said.
“Statistics show that there is an increasing number of school aged children that have no health insurance. The State of Louisiana has made it possible for all children between the ages of 0 and 18 to have access to needed health care through a variety of state supplemental programs including LaCHIP,” Matthews said.
Parents can play bingo and win prizes, while their children can enjoy games including a special “Fear Factor.”
“There will also be live entertainment, chances to win New Orleans Hornets tickets, but more importantly valuable information for parents to ensure their child or children’s future,” Matthews said.
Free transportation will be provided for the event, persons may call ByNet at 337-828-5638 in order to take advantage of the free ride.
Everyone who attends will also get a free lunch.
ByNet is a non-profit, rural health network comprised of community heath centers, local and regional hospitals, a social service agency, a tribal health clinic, a regional State of Louisiana Office of Public Health and a coalition of over seventy St. Mary Parish organizations.

NICHOLLS ISSUES RELEASE ON E-MAIL THREATS
SUSPECT CHARGED WITH SENDING THREATENING E-MAIL
The FBI arrested Dyron Hart, a 19-year-old African-American male, from Poplarville, Miss. Wednesday, Nov. 12, and charged him with sending threatening e-mails.
The arrest came after three Nicholls State University students reported receiving the threatening e-mail through their Facebook accounts.
“Yesterday’s arrest by the FBI and our federal response should serve as a powerful signal to all we serve that vile and threatening communications will not be tolerated and will be met with swift response,” said US Attorney Jim Letten.
According to the FBI affidavit, Hart admitted to sending the threatening message to people who were on his “friends” list using his Facebook Internet account. He admitted sending messages to students at Nicholls, Louisiana State University, University of Mississippi, University of Alabama, and to individuals near his Poplarville residence. His stated purpose for sending the messages (in part) was to create a reaction.”
University records show that Hart was enrolled at Nicholls for one semester – spring 2008.
Rob Bernardi, athletics director, said “Hart attempted to earn a walk-on spot on the football team. He practiced with the team from April 3 through April 19, but failed to meet NCAA clearing house qualifications, and therefore was never a member of the team.”
Hart faces a maximum term of imprisonment of five years, a fine of $250,000 and three years of supervised released. He was booked in the Stone County Jail in Mississippi and will go before the judge Thursday, Nov.13.
“I am pleased at how quickly this matter was resolved,” said Dr. Stephen Hulbert, Nicholls president. “Our university police department worked in complete cooperation with the FBI, Louisiana State Police, the Poplarville Mississippi Police Department and the Assistant US Attorney’s Office to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.”
Nicholls has requested the FBI assist the university by offering an Internet safety workshop for students during the spring 2009 semester.

OLD FRANKLIN HOSPITAL SOLD
FRANKLIN – The St. Mary Parish Council stamped the final approval needed Wednesday to sell the former Franklin Foundation Hospital for $226,000.
Rukkus Properties, LLC will buy the property, which is situated northwest of Cynthia Street, northeast of Haifleigh Street, southeast of Hospital Avenue and southwest of King Street.
Hospital Board Chairman Marshall Guidry told the Parish Council that the board agreed to a 120 day “due diligence’ clause with the company, before the sale is finalized.
“Already, they are planning to lease areas of the building to addictive medicine and substance abuse treatment centers, I would imagine anything health related that they could make money with,” Guidry said. “They’re really playing their cards close to their vest, because they don’t want competition coming in to the area.”
No one from Rukkus Properties LLC was present during the parish council meeting.
However, Guidry’s comments sparked questions from Parish Councilmen Rev. Craig Matthews, and Charles “Butch” Middleton, who were concerned that the group could lease out parts of the former care center to labor crews.
But Hospital Attorney Russel Cremaldi said, “We have done the most we could in the sale to make this property restrictive, there will be no labor crews housed there.”
“However, I cannot assure that provision should Rukkus sell. Perhaps you need to begin working on zoning for that area, which would be in place to prevent labor crews or other similar businesses from locating there,” Cremaldi said.
Councilman David Hanagriff, whose district includes the former hospital site, said “We did all we could to protect the residents around the facility.
Guidry said that between utilities, maintenance and insurance, the old hospital cost the board $50,000 last year.
A new Franklin Foundation Hospital opened last year on Northwest Blvd in Franklin, at a cost of roughly $12 million, Parish President Paul Naquin said.
Already, Guidry said business is up 26 percent, admits are up nine percent, and patient days are at 23 percent, and growing.
“We had record revenues this summer, the best is yet to come for us,” he said.

St. Mary Parish Council
By: Howard J. Castay, Jr.
The St. Mary Parish Council is amidst a review of its 2009 fiscal year budget which calls for $33.9 million revenues and $35.6 million in expenditures.
Once the budget is approved, St. Mary government’s coffers will dwindle from a beginning balance of $19,592,168 to $17,856,802.
A feature of the 2009 budget is a five percent across the board pay raise for all parish employees, which Parish President Paul Naquin said, “…keeps with the council’s and administration’s desire to provide competitive wages with the private sector in order to maintain a trained, experienced work force.”
Naquin presented the budget to the Parish Council last month.
Projects featured in the 2009 budget include:
*An access road in Morgan City from Baker Hughes to the Port Road and in Berwick, the Thorguson/Berwick South Road from Hwy 90 to the River Road.
*Improvements at the Burns Point Boat Launch and Campground.
*Construction of the Jesse Fontenot Memorial Boat Launch in Berwick, and the Lawrence Michel Memorial Boat Launch in Morgan City, in the amounts of $393,600 and $326,700, respectively.
*Although approved in the summer of 2008, construction of the $250,000 pavilion and bathroom on the fifth hole of the Atchafalaya Golf Course at Idlewild in Patterson.
*$100,000 for other, unnamed recreation improvements at Kemper Williams Park.
The budget also continues to shed light on the parish’s jail overcrowding.
“It is anticipated that …housing parish pre-trial detainees will continue to be a major expense,” Naquin said, citing projected increases in reimbursements to the City of Morgan City, the City of Patterson, and the Town of Berwick for housing detainees in their respective jails.
The parish has also been housing prisoners in its former jail, located on the seventh floor of the courthouse, since 2007.
“Due to associated increases in medical expenses for prisoners, $163,881 is transferred in from the general fund to cover the projected expenses,” Naquin said.
And the budget sheds light on specific funds, some earmarked for special needs, and others with no purpose dedicated as of yet:
*A gaming fund balance from the Amelia Belle in the amount of $300,000, is stamped for special, emergency allocations.
*Grant payments from the Chitimacha Tribe (Cypress Bayou Casino) includes a fund balance of $122,451 for programs to combat compulsive gaming.
*The road construction and maintenance has a fund balance of $59,485.
*Wards 5 & 8 Sales Tax: This account reflects a fund balance of $452,874 which is available for budgeting within the taxing district.
*Wards 1,2,3,4,7 & 10 Sales Tax: This account reflects a fund balance of $200,351 and is available to be budgeted within the taxing district.
*Job Readiness Program Fund: This fund reflects a fund balance of $267,950 and is restricted for use within the program guidelines.
Projects not featured in the 2009 budget include parish and city road projects. “There are no funds available this year for the Capital Improvement Fund to help finance construction of parish and city road projects and other improvements,” Naquin said.

By: Howard J. Castay, Jr.
The St. Mary Parish Council is amidst a review of its 2009 fiscal year budget which calls for $33.9 million revenues and $35.6 million in expenditures.
Once the budget is approved, St. Mary government’s coffers will dwindle from a beginning balance of $19,592,168 to $17,856,802.
A feature of the 2009 budget is a five percent across the board pay raise for all parish employees, which Parish President Paul Naquin said, “…keeps with the council’s and administration’s desire to provide competitive wages with the private sector in order to maintain a trained, experienced work force.”
Naquin presented the budget to the Parish Council last month.
Projects featured in the 2009 budget include:
*An access road in Morgan City from Baker Hughes to the Port Road and in Berwick, the Thorguson/Berwick South Road from Hwy 90 to the River Road.
*Improvements at the Burns Point Boat Launch and Campground.
*Construction of the Jesse Fontenot Memorial Boat Launch in Berwick, and the Lawrence Michel Memorial Boat Launch in Morgan City, in the amounts of $393,600 and $326,700, respectively.
*Although approved in the summer of 2008, construction of the $250,000 pavilion and bathroom on the fifth hole of the Atchafalaya Golf Course at Idlewild in Patterson.
*$100,000 for other, unnamed recreation improvements at Kemper Williams Park.
The budget also continues to shed light on the parish’s jail overcrowding.
“It is anticipated that …housing parish pre-trial detainees will continue to be a major expense,” Naquin said, citing projected increases in reimbursements to the City of Morgan City, the City of Patterson, and the Town of Berwick for housing detainees in their respective jails.
The parish has also been housing prisoners in its former jail, located on the seventh floor of the courthouse, since 2007.
“Due to associated increases in medical expenses for prisoners, $163,881 is transferred in from the general fund to cover the projected expenses,” Naquin said.
And the budget sheds light on specific funds, some earmarked for special needs, and others with no purpose dedicated as of yet:
*A gaming fund balance from the Amelia Belle in the amount of $300,000, is stamped for special, emergency allocations.
*Grant payments from the Chitimacha Tribe (Cypress Bayou Casino) includes a fund balance of $122,451 for programs to combat compulsive gaming.
*The road construction and maintenance has a fund balance of $59,485.
*Wards 5 & 8 Sales Tax: This account reflects a fund balance of $452,874 which is available for budgeting within the taxing district.
*Wards 1,2,3,4,7 & 10 Sales Tax: This account reflects a fund balance of $200,351 and is available to be budgeted within the taxing district.

BOYKIN GETS AWARD
Jerome Boykin is the recipient of the Louisiana NAACP Badge of Courage Award, and will receive the honor Friday, Oct 31, during the opening session of the 2008 State NAACP Conference in Lafayette.
State President Dr. Ernest L. Johnson Sr. said Boykin, President of the Terrebonne NAACP, is a true leader.
“Few would argue that this award and Jerome Boykin are a natural fix. He exudes the kind of leadership and quality of character that one comes to expect out of a true NAACP leader,” Johnson said.
Boykin, who is facing Houma-Terrebonne Housing Authority Manager Troy Johnson on Nov 1 in chapter elections, said he is honored with the award.
“It’s not always easy to do what’s right, to stand up for what you believe in. You take a lot of heat, and then you take more,” Boykin said.
“But there isn’t one call to action by the NAACP, that I would not do again, because they’re all a call of mind to justice,” he said.
Boykin announced his honor during the local chapter’s Oct 23rd meeting, where he announced that State Rep. Joe Harrison is spearheaded a letter, along with the Terrebonne State delegation of lawmakers, asking Louisiana Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable Catherine D. “Kitty” Kimball, to call a judicial review to add a minority judgeship for the Houma City Court – a goal Boykin has pushed during his tenure as president.
Harrison writes in the letter that before the legislature can act on a bill to create the new judgeship, a “designee of the Judicial Council shall provide information to the appropriate legislative standing committees…as to the necessity of creating the new judgeship.”
Also, he said that while the 32nd Judicial District presently has five judges, the Houma City Court has only one. He also reminds Kimball that the building in Houma previously used as the federal courthouse was purchased by the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government in order to house the Houma City Court. “The building facilities are certainly sufficient to sustain the operations of two city court judgeships,” he wrote.
Boykin said he is in awe of Harrison’s request. “You just find a Republican helping the NAACP,” he said.
Meanwhile Johnson, who also spoke during the Oct 23rd meeting, believes Boykin needs to do more as NAACP President. “He should have held Get out the Vote Drives for this most important Presidential Election, and nothing has gone on,” Johnson said.
Persons who are members of the Terrebonne Parish Chapter of the NAACP can cast their vote for either Boykin or Johnson, during an election on Saturday, Nov 1st, at the NAACP’s local headquarters, 6122 West Park in Houma.
Voting times will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with election results by 5 p.m..
