Motion by Hendry and seconded by Parks to approve the minutes of July 6th special meeting, July 12th regular meeting, and July 18th special meeting. Unanimously approved.
Kendal Magee with Frye-Magee and Associates talked to the Jurors about submitting an application for project funding under the State of LA FY 2008/2009 Community Development Block Grant (LCDBG) Program. Franklin Parish has benefited from the program in the past such as: streets, sewer, and water system improvements throughout the Parish. Kendall said that a half million dollars was available. Jury should relook at street application. Juror Scott wanted to know why the street project would be funded this cycle when 2 years ago it failed.

Sam Jones with the Governor's office spoke to Jurors and audience on Home Rule Charter. He said out of 64 parishes 24 operated under a Charter. Home Rule Charter is an accountable form of government where action can be taken locally on the problems at hand rather than going through Baton Rouge. Jones said he had previously served as Mayor of Franklin in St. Mary parish and had operated on the Home Rule Charter which proved beneficial to Franklin. A Home Rule Charter provides structure and organization. A Police Jury does not have authority to determine its own structure and organization.

In Home Rule Charter, you can draw charter any way you want it done. No action was taken
