I see no item on the agenda to indicate they are pursuing a replacement of the interim administrator who is costing us a lot more money than is necessary. Lack of competence? Or by design?
06/14/2023 at 5:57 pm |
Ignorance, apathy, or malice.
06/16/2023 at 4:05 pm |
Durrett will keep Hall there as long as he can. He doesn’t want to lose that control.
06/13/2023 at 8:58 pm |
Maybe Hyde isn’t available or still enjoying the bounty he lifted from LPPJ
06/14/2023 at 1:31 pm |
Who is Hyde?
06/14/2023 at 11:00 pm |
Ask around
06/15/2023 at 12:20 pm |
he just did
06/15/2023 at 9:17 pm |
Good one!
06/15/2023 at 8:27 am |
Hall is fixing the mess that was left for him to fix. Then they’ll begin the replacement process. That controversial decision in January was probably the best thing they could have done for the parish.
06/15/2023 at 12:24 pm |
ha!…i was no postel superfan, but if you believe hall is leaving willingly, i have some oceanfront property in lincoln parish to sell you
06/15/2023 at 3:45 pm |
Yeeaahhh…he’s in no hurry to leave.
06/16/2023 at 4:04 pm |
No mess for Hall to fix. Beyond the elected jury members, the staff operations were running pretty smoothly.
06/16/2023 at 5:31 pm |
I’m grateful some of the pj were strong enough to do what they had to do despite the show of popular support. Took a lot of guts to do that and not say why. He knew why and didn’t want people to know so played dumb for his friends. It would have worked in the 1920s.
06/16/2023 at 6:37 pm |
“took a lot of guts to do that and not say why”…baha…are you joking?…that’s the literal definition of a coward
06/16/2023 at 6:42 pm |
It’s the definition of someone who knows Human Resources best practices.
06/17/2023 at 2:39 pm |
or who can’t prove their allegations
06/19/2023 at 2:33 pm |
They don’t have to prove it or reveal it. Privacy laws for Human Resources .
06/21/2023 at 5:45 pm |
Correct
10/18/2023 at 11:04 pm |
You may believe whatever you want, but that certainly isn’t true
06/15/2023 at 11:09 pm |
i love the “flip the jury” signs i’ve seen…where can i get one?
06/16/2023 at 7:24 am |
We want the jury to flip so they can rehire Doug.
06/16/2023 at 11:47 am |
i don’t care if they rehire doug as long as durrett and melton are gone…add russell and wyatt while we’re at it…all snakes
06/16/2023 at 12:16 pm |
garriga will probably take skip’s district
06/16/2023 at 6:40 pm |
i know his restaurant is in it, but does he live in skip’s district?
06/17/2023 at 7:32 am |
He just announced his candidacy.
06/17/2023 at 2:42 pm |
good to know…i wish him luck
06/19/2023 at 2:31 pm |
He is required to live in the district
06/21/2023 at 5:50 pm |
He will only ruin his business for nothing. The new jurors rarely have a clue anyway. If he was intelligent enough to be good at it, he would leave it alone. But alas! They all think they can”fix it”. Boy will they get a surprise.
06/22/2023 at 8:34 am |
The police jury can be “fixed” if we dump enough of the current members.
06/22/2023 at 9:58 am |
Skip will retain it. He’s a longtime businessman in this area and well respected.
06/22/2023 at 5:42 pm |
mediocre food. cant imagine the management is much better
06/22/2023 at 6:37 pm |
Isn’t it strange how Ruston goes crazy for that food? They need to travel . Leave the parish and find great food. Stop eating so much fried .
07/23/2023 at 6:31 pm |
Mose is in unless he gets an opponent. He’ll be the most surprised fellow when he steps in the first pile of poo; he’ll never see it coming and it will hurt his business.
You see, 99% of neophytes think it’s sooo simple: just do X and Y, and Bob’s your uncle. Boy do they get a rude awakening . And they don’t have to do anything obviously wrong, either.
The movie “No Country For Old Men” Has a great illustration of what happens when idealism is hit by reality.
07/24/2023 at 10:22 am |
Figured correctly that Skip would not run and risk an embarrassing defeat.
06/22/2023 at 5:25 pm |
This new guy Woods will probably take that district too. Know him. Good fella.
06/22/2023 at 7:01 pm |
i like ms. hazel, but she is ms. wyatt’s puppet…i wish mr. woods luck…i would love to see these seats flip: durrett, melton, wyatt, hunter, and russell
06/23/2023 at 8:13 am |
Tommie Woods is a humble leader that will make a great police juror. It’s time for some changes.
06/16/2023 at 8:59 am |
Our largest problem with elected officials is the voters who seem to believe this is all a popularity contest unrelated to government.
06/17/2023 at 4:55 pm |
Agreed
06/22/2023 at 3:46 pm |
Doug just got the job as principal at Darbonne Woods charter school. It pays around $130K a year. He ain’t coming back. Since that door got closed I winder how that impacts the police jury races?
06/22/2023 at 5:06 pm |
So apparently, very much like Calloway, Postel discovered life is better and more profitable with a six figure salary outside Lincoln Parish government. Good luck to them both. Now. What are WE going to do to fix the problems we have with our elected government officials? Anybody?
06/22/2023 at 5:21 pm |
flip every seat on that jury every one
06/22/2023 at 5:30 pm |
I winder too
06/23/2023 at 9:02 am |
Once a citizen joins the class of the elected they leave the ranks of the peasants forever. The citizen gains entitlements, benefits, power, control, and access. This person will never again concern themselves with the needs and desires of the electorate.
07/24/2023 at 10:23 am |
hear someone is going to run against Melton. you know, the guy that sits by Durrett so he can ask him how to vote.
07/24/2023 at 12:19 pm |
milton “lap dog” melton?…the guy (along with durrett) who hid the first (cheap) ruston ems contract from the rest of the jury?…good riddance!
07/25/2023 at 7:34 am |
Like Pullin, Scriber, and Cranford do with Hunt?
08/10/2023 at 1:41 pm |
Is Walter still with us? He hasn’t posted any news in two months.
08/16/2023 at 1:24 pm |
I was wondering the same thing.
10/10/2023 at 10:42 am |
So Hyde was arrested
10/16/2023 at 9:37 pm |
Why is nobody talking about this? He’s still
Injail
10/19/2023 at 4:14 pm |
pretty high bail for a guy with local roots
10/20/2023 at 8:06 am |
Does anybody know what employer he stole from?
01/08/2024 at 11:39 am |
Where is Walter?
01/16/2024 at 6:03 am |
Walter went AWOL
01/24/2024 at 11:17 pm |
Looks like H B and Hyde ran this site out of business
01/30/2024 at 8:48 am |
Who is HB?
02/05/2024 at 8:56 am |
So many issues and no Walter to bring them up? Still a trash issue in the parish. Abandoned animals galore. New school bond issue. They didn’t waste any time going after that after the last one failed. $3.5 million for a softball field?? What can you put at a field beyond stands, restrooms, and concession stand that costs $3.5 million? All for RHS softball but didn’t the city build a locker room at the new sports complex for RHS softball’s exclusive use?
02/09/2024 at 10:31 am |
Hah! Apparently they can’t stand that Lincoln Parish’s best softball players are going to Cedar Creek where they have a chance to win a state championship & play in college.
03/21/2024 at 11:08 am |
A tale as old as time. If you want to control the public sector, control the information. Walter has been silenced because the people who want to control the public sector cannot control the information from ‘anonymous’ people who comment on blogs. Many of the anonymous who comment are people who work in the public sector but whose jobs would be at risk if they were to comment publicly.
If there are so many who are disengaged from the public process because they cannot be bothered? They deserved to be deceived and controlled.
04/02/2024 at 8:57 am |
What do you mean by Walter has been silenced? Is he tied up in a closet somewhere? Has his computer been taken from him?
04/08/2024 at 8:23 am |
I’d like to know too. Why don’t you tell us? Did you tell him to stop posting?
