  • Council Proceedings of the City of Shreveport, Louisiana June 24, 2003
    COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY OF SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA JUNE 24, 2003 The Regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of Shreveport, State of Louisiana, was called to order by Chairman Monty Walford at 3:00 p.m., Tuesday, June 24, 2003, in the Government Chambers in Government Plaza (505 Travis Street). Councilman Gibson led the Invocation. Before I do the invocation, I’d like a moment of silence. We lost, on Sunday, one of Shreveport’s outstanding citizens, Percy Sharp who was a mainstay in the business community and the civic community working in North Highlands, working with the Chamber of Commerces, both African-American Chambers and Shreveport Chambers and Bossier and Minden Chambers of Commerce. In fact, he was also the main individual who 4 ½ years ago was able to see that we were at an impasse on I-49 North and called a breakfast with myself and John Holt and Jerry Harris who was on the Port Commission at the time to discuss how we get that project back on course. And his vision and fortitude actually was, and that story has not been told until this time, is the reason why now we are on track to have one of the biggest economic development projects to hit Louisiana, probably for the next 25 years, but I would ask for a moment of silence in recognition of Percy Sharp. On Roll Call, the following members were Present: Councilmen Lester, Walford, Green, Gibson, Hogan, and Jackson. 6. Absent: Councilman Carmody (out of City). 1. Approve Minutes. Motion by Councilman Gibson, seconded by Councilman Hogan to approve the Administrative Conference Summary Minutes of June 9, 2003 and the Council Meeting Minutes of June 10, 2003.

  • Appendix: Candidate Trade Profiles by State
    APPENDIX: CANDIDATE TRADE PROFILES BY STATE We analyzed the trade positions in all competitive and open-seat races. “Competiveness” was determined by the Cook Political Report’s ratings as of November 4, 2008. (Additionally, the Maryland 4 and North Carolina 10 races were included for reasons explained below.) In the profiles below, race winners are denoted by a check mark. Winners who are fair traders are additionally highlighted in blue text. Alabama _____________________________________________________________ House Alabama-2: ANTI-NAFTA OFF! OPEN SEAT vacated by anti-fair trade Rep. Terry Everett (R) Jay Love is the Republican candidate, and a fair trader. He campaigned on fair-trade themes, saying: “I certainly hope we don’t, but you never know what situation might develop where we could face some sort of food embargo from another country, and that’s not a position we need to put ourselves in, from a national security standpoint. So, as much production as we can provide for in this country, we need to make sure we maintain…The fact is we have got to have more inspectors that are inspecting the food that is coming into this country. In the latest salmonella scare, it was jalapenos coming out of Mexico. That is food that was coming from another country. We don’t have enough people to inspect what comes into this country. Less than 2 percent of it is inspected. That does not provide for a safe, reliable food if we're going to be importing it from other countries. [Love answering the follow-up question ‘How feasible is it to actually to test and look at much more than 2 percent of the imports?’]: It certainly needs to be more than 2 percent.

  • 2003 Annual Report
    CADDO PARISH ANNUAL REPORT 2003 President’s Message Unless a permanent solution can be found, the budget problem that made itself painfully felt in Caddo Parish during 2003 will continue into 2004 and beyond. The problem is not unique to Caddo Parish–it is part of a larger problem that has plagued virtually every parish in Louisiana for many years---the ever-growing cost of funding all the aspects of the criminal justice system. Every felony offender who passes through the criminal justice system, from the time of his apprehension by law enforcement officers, his prosecution by the state Attorney, his adjudication by the state Court, and his incarceration by the State or the Parish, imposes a large and ever- growing burden upon the taxpayers of this parish and this state. The same scenario can be found in varying degrees in every county of every state in the Union. Every dollar spent on criminal justice is a dollar that could be spent on more beneficial and positive public works and improvements–or a dollar that could remain in the pockets of taxpayers. Within the annual budget administered by the Caddo Parish Commission are several budgetary agencies that are components of the criminal justice system–the District Attorney’s Office, the District Court and the Juvenile Court. The Parish jail—Caddo Correctional Center—is provided and maintained by the Caddo Parish Commission, even though it is operated by the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office. In total, these criminal justice expenditures account for the major part of the annual budget of the Parish of Caddo.
