Iberville Parish

The proceedings included a Public Hearing concerning an ordinance to accept certain private roads into the Parish's road system, which featured a presentation on the road ranking factors and received no public opposition. The subsequent Regular Meeting covered several key items: a Resolution of Recognition for Plaquemine High School's football team, informational updates regarding a Christmas Tree display, and an announcement of candidacy for State Representative District 60. The Council also addressed Old Business, ultimately adopting an ordinance to formally accept Jessie Romig Road, Gisclard Road, and Comeaux Drive into the Parish's road system upon land donation. New Business included consideration of a re-subdivision request for Texas Williams, which was ultimately delayed for 30 days, and the approval of a re-subdivision for Peerliss Property Management. Furthermore, the Council made appointments to the Iberville Parish Council Advisory Board for Planning and Development.

The Advisory Board for Planning & Development addressed several items. In New Business, four re-subdivision introductions (Lisha Messina, Buhler & Warthen, Texas Williams, and Peerliss Property Management) were scheduled for a hearing on December 16, 2025. In Old Business, the Board approved a variance request for Donnie Bujol concerning the subdivision of Lot 1 into Lot 1-A and Lot 1-B. Conversely, the Board voted to deny the re-subdivision request for Yuri Melendes following objections from neighbors regarding property maintenance and zoning compliance. Approvals were also granted for the re-subdivision requests from Purpera & Dupont and the re-subdivision for Agnes Ward Estate. A motion to approve a contingent re-subdivision for Clayton Hurdle was also passed.

The Parish Council convened in a Special Session for the purpose of reviewing the proposed 2026 budget. The Chief Operating Officer presented detailed information regarding the list of projects and equipment slated for inclusion in the 2026 proposed budget, addressing inquiries from the Council members during the presentation.

The document details proceedings from a Public Hearing and a subsequent Regular Meeting. The Public Hearing addressed Ordinance 1, which concerned the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2026 Operating and Capital Improvement Budget and the Amended 2025 Operating and Capital Improvement Budget, which received no public opposition. The Regular Meeting included the presentation of a proclamation honoring the 2025 Evangeline Queen and a presentation by the Atchafalaya Basinkeeper regarding Basin Management plans, including a future meeting on sedimentation. The council adopted the ordinance for the 2026 budget. New business involved the introduction of an ordinance to accept certain private roads into the parish road system, which was ultimately tabled. The Resolution Committee recommended forwarding a resolution to declare legal holidays for 2026, which was subsequently adopted. The Planning Commission Report resulted in the denial of the consideration for re-subdivision for Yuri Melendes based on neighborhood concerns regarding property standards, and approval for variances and re-subdivisions for four other cases.

The Advisory Board meeting included the introduction of variance for Donnie Bujol, re-subdivisions for Yuri Melendes, Purpera & Dupont, Clayton Hurdle, and Agnes Ward Estate, all set for a hearing on November 18, 2025. The board also considered and approved a re-subdivision for Sandra Andre.
