ident Frank Vallot, Acadian Cypress & Hardwoods CFO -
Glen Bartels, Acadian Cypress & Hardwoods Operations
Manager Wayne Cangelosi, and Port Manchac Executive
Director Patrick Dufresne. The project cargo is the first in a
series of rail shipments of specialty plywood products that
originated from Oregon and trans-loaded at the Port Man-
ehae terminal. STPPC President Mark Griggs commented,
"The port plans to develop and expand the volume of rail
shipments for Acadian Cypress & Hardwoods and other
rail shippers by utilizing the terminal's strategic logistic
location adjacent to the main line of the Canadian National
Railroad (CN) that is outside of the congested Port of New
Orleans rail cargo market." (Times Photo)

CITY OF PONCHATOULA
MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
A regular meeting of the Mayor and City Council was held Monday, November
8, 2010 at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall in Ponchatoula, Louisi-
e
ana.
Council members present were Elou-
ise Conley-Dotey, Jeannemarie Pierson,
Melvin Toomer, and Vergil Sandifer.
Braville LeBlanc was absent.
Mayor Zabbia called the meeting to
order and gave the invocation which was
followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.
Mrs. Pierson motioned to accept the
minutes of the October 12, 2010 meet-
ing as presented. All voted in favor of
the motion.
There was no public input.
Agenda item #4, the FY 2010 audit
presentation, would be rescheduled for
the December meeting. (Due to an error
found in the report.)
Mr. Toomer nominated Carla Heis-
ser to fill a vacancy on the Planning

and appoint Mrs. Heisser. All voted in

Mayor Zabbia and the City Council
discussed the COPS Grant acceptance
award which would allow funding for a
new police officer for a period of three
years. After that period the city would
have to continue to fund the position for
12 months. Council members had ques-
tions regarding terms and conditions of
the grant, and what expenses were not
covered by the grant that the city would
be responsible for. Chief Layrisson stat-
ed the city had until December 30, 2010
to accept the award. Council members
took no action on this item, opting to
wait until the next meeting when their
questions could be answered.
Mrs. Pierson motioned to adopt two
resolutions, one for declaration of sur-
plus property including three vehicles;
and a second declaring an 80 x 80 parcel

surplus. All voted in favor of the mo-
tion.
