caddo parish commission

Mario Chavez talks about the latest Long Range Planning Committee meeting and when decisions on a courthouse fence or other building projects will be made.

Caddo Commissioner Steven Jackson talks about the commission's vote to study the building a bathroom facility for homeless people on the courthouse grounds.

The Sheriff says that the barrier would keep homeless from using the courthouse lawn as a campground, and also secure the building from any number of threats.

Mario Chavez says that a legal fight over property ownership could take up to two years, and a final vote to remove the monument might end up in a tie.

Steven Jackson says the monument controversy is "not the biggest priority on my list," and there are issues far more important to his constituents.

Commission President Steven Jackson also says that he will refuse to meet with Paul Elio under the guidelines stipulated by boss of the struggling autp company.

Mario Chavez talks about his latest plans to upgrade the facility, and an update on the status of the proposed animal registration plan.

Ken Epperson is resigning from the Caddo Commission, a move that has apparently blindsided his fellow commissioners.

Commissioners have taken a total of 272 trips since 2008.
