CITIZENS COMMENTS
Mr. Charles Mary Rice emailed the following statement:
I think that Juneteenth is a necessary moment of observation because our government, and to a certain degree, our nation and our culture has not really acknowledged the trauma of 4 million enslaved people and their descendants. It hasn’t acknowledge the impact this institution has had on this country and continues to have on this country. There hasn’t been a national accounting, and I think the Juneteenth holiday is a reminder of America’s oldest sin. And it will continue to be a reminder and a haunting until we do. This Resolution does not divide this community. It only exposes the unconscious bias that already exists among many in our community. As white Caddo residents, I urge Commissioners to pass this resolution. Charles & Mary Rice
The NAACP Shreveport emailed the following statement:
Black Americans have experienced oppression and suppression for more than 400 years. To this day, navigating life as a Black American in our city and country does not come with the same privileges experienced by others. Systemic racism creates barriers to safety, health and wealth. And everyday activities often result in racist interactions. Despite the many barriers placed in front of them, Black Americans have showed time and time again, their resiliency, strength, wisdom, and courage. We want to formally recognize the significance of June 19 and observe it as a day of both remembrance and action. We the Board Members and Officers of the Shreveport Chapter of the NAACP support legislation to recognize Juneteenth as an official holiday. We are committed to making sure this holiday is more than a gesture. It must symbolize our commitments to eliminating anti-Black racism within the Parish of Caddo workforce and community. “You are more powerful than you know and they fear the day you discover it.”—Unknown
Orlando Jones emailed the following statement:
While Juneteenth has become the most prominent Emancipation Day holiday in the US, it commemorates a smaller moment that remains relatively obscure. It doesn’t mark the signing of the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation, which technically freed slaves in the rebelling Confederate States, nor does it commemorate the December 1865 ratification of the 13th Amendment, which enshrined the end of slavery into the Constitution. Instead, it marks the moment when emancipation finally reached those in the deepest parts of the former Confederacy. Although decades of trauma and hate followed, Juneteenth is a moment of reflection just as Memorial Day and July 4th is for everyone else. The Commissioner is 100% correct to call out anyone being put up to question the relevancy of this effort. Juneteenth is a moment where we step back and try to understand the plight of black people who had the misfortune distinction of being slaves on American soil. No the election of President Obama did not erase 400 years of mistreatment as some suggest. It does not take away the relevance of any other Independence or holiday in other ways.
Nick Jordan emailed the following statement:
I would like to urge the Commission to make, if they have not already done so, a public statement or resolution in SUPPORT OF our local law enforcement. I have heard in recent weeks, from all over the nation, the villainizing and dehumanizing of law enforcement. There are millions of police-public encounters every year, the overwhelming majority are professional, safe, non-violent and positive. We cannot allow a very small percentage of the law enforcement population paint the picture of the entire force. Our police department and sheriff’s office service in a very difficult capacity and they need to know, without a doubt, the parish leadership supports them in every possible way. Please make sure they do know, using your words and your actions.
Patricia Smith emailed the following statement:
Please explain to me why this commission wishes to help erase history. The removing of statues, changing names of streets, changing the names of buildings and bases. Are we to change the Name of Shreveport and Caddo Parish because the indigenous Caddo Indians were forced to sell the land in 1835 to keep their freedom? Were you aware that Shreveport contained a slave trade market (1836) and those slaves white, black, and indentured created the port area that created the booming industry that created Shreveport? Why are the white slaves and the indentured slaves forgotten when you wish to recognized slavery? No man woman or child should be bought and sold but no difference of color or race
564 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020 they were all unfortunately not immune. My Irish ancestors were slaves so does that make me entitled.. No. My Indian ancestors walked the trail of tears. Does that make me entitled? No. My Scottish ancestors were persecuted and burnt out of their legally purchased homes yet should I feel entitled. No. If you start passing ordinances based on race, past historical grievances you are nothing better than the Nazi occupation. You are basically slapping Martin Luther King Jr and those that worked so hard for equality in the face. You are saying civil rights laws were a failure. You are saying those that died trying to help free slaves of all colors died in vain. Not one member of this commission was a slave nor knew anyone that was a slave; no member of this commission ever owned a slave nor knew anyone that owned a slave. What is the goal of this commission, to serve the community or to erase the history that built these communities? You as commissioners are a form of indentured servants. You freely gave up personal feelings for those of your constituents. What's next? Will you be promoting historical figures like William Ellison, Nicolas Augustin Metoyer of Louisiana, I could list 240 more but you get the point. If you take down history we need to remove all historical names, statues, and signs. This means all historical remembrances. White privilege is nothing more than a racist phrase used against people of light skin to justify violence and disdain. I have worked my entire life so if you know where to find it let me know. Think of this before you vote today. And to those who have been proudly sporting Black Lives Matter you may wish to remember All Lives Matter. All Lives are by the grace of God.
Joyce Rogers, Emma Merrells, Terrance Trammell, Theresa Myles, and C. Bradford submitted the following email:
This email is sent to you expressing my support of Resolution # 41, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, and 49 on your agenda. I respectfully ask for your favorable vote and support also.
Marvin T. Muhammad emailed the following statement:
I submit my comments in support of the various resolutions that Commissioners Jackson, Watts, Cawthorne, Burrell, Epperson, and Johnson have submitted for vote today. While I don’t have enough time to speak on each one individually know that I stand and support each on their own merit. Moreover, it’s time to put the Confederate Monument to rest. Let’s remove this daily reminder of the most wicked atrocity known to man done over a period of time that America should always hang her head in shame. Move it out of the public square to one where it would be widely accepted. Furthermore, Juneteenth isn’t just a day; Juneteenth is medicine to an injured and sick people who suffer from the plague of fratricide. The cure of which is overflowing pitcher of love poured into them continuously. Juneteenth official acknowledgement is one does of many we will need. Lastly, let’s support the policy that says YES to police oversight. Thank you for this time and a listening ear. Marvin T. Muhammad.
Tom Yearby emailed the following statement:
I'd like to suggest Henry Flipper, West Point's first African American graduate or keeping it Louisiana, someone in General Bank's Corp of Africa that fought at the battle of Port Hudson. Anyways, good luck in your efforts and a good Juneteenth to you sir and thank you for your service to the country and Caddo Parish. Tom Yearby
Kenneth Brantley submitted the following statement:
Take those Confederate statues down. We must show our children that we are working on leaving them a better place than what was passed down to us. Put them in a museum if you want or just discard them. Just put them somewhere where whereby we don't have to be reminded of what they stand for and what people of their mind and power did to black and brown people.
Michael Williams called and gave the following statement:
Good evening commissioners. Hey, this is Michael Williams, 210 Carver Place Shreveport, La. To the chairman, other members on the commission, I was asked to call regarding the symbol that’s been at the courthouse for many years. It’s something that’s long overdue with all the racial tension between the Democrats and Republicans, dividing our nation and our own public policy. But, uh, but I do believe it’s ever been a time in history, where we can be one nation under God for liberty and justice for all by removing the symptoms - the symbolism of racism and hate. I don’t have to reverse and rehash your past without scars about my ancestors, African-Americans who was fought during the civil war. But I think it’s very important that we try to have nothing inequality for all citizens in our great county. And I think the symbol of the monument doesn’t represent unity in America. The only way we can bridge the gap is by removing any type of threats and any type of tension move forward in a new America. Where you see people all over the world being inclusive, the global movement, to bring about racial tension in our country. You know, change has come. It’s a point where we don’t look at people’s skin but it’s about skin. Skin come in all flavors and colors. It’s time for us to be one nation in God with liberty and justice for all. The only way we can come we have to create a new America with new policies and procedures,
565 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Democrats and Republicans working together for what is good not what is wrong. Not what am I, black? What is right and wrong? Not skin. We need to do what is best. I pray today that you would stand with commissioners. We stand with Commissioner Lyndon Johnson and Epperson, and others who stood before the city’s hall asking that we move the monument. I think we should move forward. We been through the judicial process. It came in our favor. There’s no sense in rehearsal rehashing. You want to have that monument move in your backyard or put it in a park with a private park. But it don’t belong in a public facility, where you’re going to get equal decisions about your future. In the meantime, I pray you do what is right, not what is in your heart in terms of promoting evil, but only way we can change is only God can change our heart. And the moral conscience of our country, we’re being tested in our next generation. So, I pray that you will move forward and move the monument. Thank you very much.
Mrs. Brasco called and gave the following statement:
I am full of agreement that the Confederate monument needs to come down please. Thank you, very much.
Craig Lee called and gave the following statement:
Good evening, I hope everybody is having a very good day. I just wanted to make sure that I made a very important statement regarding the removal of the Confederate statue. Nine years ago, I’m proud to say that I was a part of a multi-ethnic coalition of individuals in Shreveport that lobbied, and successfully lobbied, for the removal of the Confederate flag. So that was phase one of this journey and that was, again, nine years ago. I’m also honored to have been on an advocacy team a few years ago as we successfully lobbied the Caddo Parish Commission to sponsor legislation to remove the statue. We have dealt with a lot of complete lies that the Daughters of the Confederacy stated in terms of them owning the property and we found out of course all that not to be the case. So, I’m here to be very clear the Confederate monument must come down. And I’m here on the Daughters of Confederacy page, their actual website. And here’s a statement that pretty much capsulizes where we’re at with these individuals. And it says, “We are saddened that some people find anything connected with the Confederacy to be offensive. Our Confederate ancestors were and are Americans. We as an organization do not sit in judgement of them nor do we impose the standards of the 19th century on Americans of the 21st century.” That entire statement is contradictory, because the first sentence is imposing standards from the 19th century on us. Because it says, “We are saddened that some people find anything connected with the Confederacy to be offensive.” ‘Anything’ and that means slavery. And so, no organization, none, should have any focus of having a statue, monument, flag, or anything on public property in Caddo Parish or any other county or parish in the United States of America. And it is past time that the Caddo Parish Commission, along with our legal team, handle the business and shut this down once and for all. They can have their statue, their flags, and whatever other racist memorabilia that they consider to be prideful in their own museum, on their own property, or whatever. But, it will not be on public property. And with that I thank you guys for the opportunity. And I look forward to a successful court date in a few weeks where the district court rules in favor of getting this thing down once and for all. Thank you very much.
Kimberly Marshall called and gave the following statement:
I would like to voice my complaint about the statue located downtown in front of the courthouse. I think it should be removed and I think it should be removed as soon as possible. I do not like what it represents and it does not stand for me. My name is Kimberly Crockett Kimberly Marshall and I would like to have it taken down please. Do you all have any ideas of where we are at with this? Is there a problem? I thought it was already determined that this statue was going to come down. I see that it has not. In the midst of all the other things that are going on, I think that you all will do better before Shreveport gets all riled up. And I do not want to see that. So, where are we with that? Is anyone on the line or can anyone on the line answer that, give me an idea of what’s going on? (The Deputy Commission Clerk advised Ms. Marshall that the Commissioners could not answer questions at time.) I would love to leave my contact information. The name is Kimberly Marshall and the telephone number is area code 318-xxx- xxxx
Jayne Tappe called and gave the following statement:
Hello Commissioners. I wanted to speak out against resolution 49. I want to just voice loudly my discontent with any Caddo Parish Commissioner that supports this resolution. You don’t get to change history. You only get to resolve to change the future of how you and others do things. That is because of history. That is how we learn what to do and what not to do. That is how we learn. It’s called history. And since everybody is so on board about how offended they are, let me just say this loudly and clearly, you offend me by even suggesting that we change the name of our military facilities and the Confederate symbols. Those are history. It’s your job to be a part of a positive future. You can’t change history by changing the names of statues and military bases. Just one example of just how this negativity is just backwards. I am in no way of saying I know all the facts or everything about Ms. Jemima. I don’t. But one of the first Black ladies that was given recognition for all that she did, all that she accomplished, and all
566 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020 that she was. And now folks want to take that away from her, because somebody today got their little feelings hurt. They want to right some kind of wrong for Ms. Jemima. They’re not. So, now, she doesn’t get the recognition and the praise and the honor to such a job well done. Because somebody got their feelings hurt. This is just one of many, many examples. So, Commissioners it’s your job. You only change history, but listening to history, not erasing it, not trying to change the names that are already there. And lastly of course, as you can tell by the rest of this message, I do not agree with removing the Confederate statue. It. Is. History. Thank you Commissioners.
Pastor Mays called and gave the following statement:
First of all, I want to say thank you to all of the Commissioners that we stood in solidarity with on yesterday. As it relates to some of the polices that needs to be implemented in the City of Shreveport. First of all, I want to thank God and I want to thank you all for your service. We, here in Northwest Louisiana - Shreveport, are moving in the right direction. And when we got people calling in on today, let’s you know that we are in solidarity with you, that there’s time for a change within the City of Shreveport. And in order to move forward as a city, we must address the problems of systemic racism and white supremacy that exists. And the only way we can truly move forward is we’ve got to face that there is a problem and secondly address those problems from what y’all are doing. You had over 2000 people to march on the City of Shreveport. Our organization is the Congress for Systemic Justice there are other organizations that are working with use to move the city forward. We thank you guys for what you all did on yesterday. I was sort of disappointed because I was hoping that all the council members would be there so that you can show a form of strength and solidarity in moving this city forward. But I do want to say to you, those of that were there and those of you that want to see this city go forward, the citizens of this city want to say thank you. All over the country, people are rising up against that which is wrong that which is inhumane. And we want to say thank you all, you have our support. Yes, the monument must go. Yes, racism and white supremacy and the stigma that has been over this city for far too long, must go. You all are the first step in the right direction. I just personally want to say to you guys, thank you so much and may God get the glory and we thank you for your service.
Kenneth Brantley called and gave the following statement:
Yes, my name is Kenneth Brantley. I live in the Timberline subdivision. I wanted to call and expression my concern… First of all, I want to thank the Commissioners for the job that they do. I know it’s a task, but I just wanted to let you know many of us in the city do appreciate your service. This is my first time calling in, but I do want to let you know that I am one that’s voting that we remove the Confederate statues. I was listening in on a comment that was made from the call prior before me and one of the things she kept saying is people getting their feelings hurt. Well, there’s more than just people’s feelings hurt behind these Confederate positions. They want to suppress people, kill people, and demean people. That’s what those statues represent to a lot of us. And, so, we want to ask you all to strongly consider - Let’s, as the previous call priors to me, let’s make a change. Let’s start moving forward to heal the hurt form the past. I think this would be a great start in the minds of many. That it would show that whites are starting to see how much we’re being hurt, not just from the past, but even currently. As we’re seeing in the media and all across the world in the country. But that’s just my comment. I just want to let y’all know that I am one that wanted to have those statues removed.
Sandra Carr called and gave the following statement:
Hello, I am calling to request that the Confederate statue be removed from the federal parish courthouse. It’s time for this city to move, it’s time for the country to move forward and in order for it to do so we need to remove all the reminders that or reflect slavery and oppression.
Mr. Johnson provided a point of clarification for the citizens. He said that the Commission voted to remove the Confederate Monument as well as put $500,000 in the budget to move it, but they are waiting on the judges to get through with their rendering.
VISITORS
Shreveport Police Chief Ben Raymond
Mr. Epperson thanked Chief Raymond for attending this meeting today. He commended Chief Raymond for never showing any partiality. Mr. Epperson wanted to make it clear that he does not disrespect the police nor the police department.
Mr. Epperson wanted to know if there was a police union or police association. Chief Raymond stated that there is a Shreveport Police Officers’ Association with approximately 400 members. They also have a Police Union that is made up of approximately 100 members, which was recently created in the past six months. Mr. Epperson wanted to know if they had a contract where they negotiate wages, benefits, disciplinary process, etc. Chief Raymond stated that there is no basis in the City for there to be any contractual meetings between the City and the association or the union. He also explained that both
567 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020 the union and the association are there to represent the officers in which they bring ideas to Administration, but do not have any bargaining power.
Mr. Epperson wanted to know if the association or union would represent on behalf of an officer if they were to have some type of disciplinary action against them. Chief Raymond pointed out that the association and union are comprised of employees from the Police Department, they are separate entities. He said that association does provide representation at both the criminal levels and administration levels. If you’re a member of the association, they pay associate legal fees. He stated the union has something similar in place, but they decide based on the merits of the case if they will represent the member or not.
Answering another question from Mr. Epperson regarding the number of personnel currently employed with the Shreveport Police Department (SPD), Chief Raymond stated that they have 511 officers, 44 police communication officers, 33 jailers, and approximately 109 civilian employees. Mr. Epperson wanted to know if the department is adequately staffed. Chief Raymond said that they are not where they would like to be. He also explained that they have a sworn strength of 580, but have never reached 580. He also said that they are lower staffed right now, and they have been for quite some time. The biggest contributing factor being recruiting qualified applicants.
Chief Raymond further explained that their average attrition rate is three officers per month. They lose approximately 36 people per year on average for retirement, resignation, and terminations. He said that unless they hire at least 36 people per year, they will not break even.
Mr. Epperson wanted to know if the department is currently under any litigation relative to improprieties such as brutality, ethics violations, or anything of that nature. Chief Raymond said that they are currently dealing with a couple of pending civil suits, with a few dealing with use of force issues. He also mentioned that they there are always dealing with pending suits, but he is not intimately familiar with them.
Mr. Epperson mentioned that the Commission allocated some funding to provide SPD with vehicles. Dr. Wilson stated that was correct. Mr. Epperson wanted to reiterate that the Commission and SPD have a working relationship. He thanked Chief Raymond once again for his professionalism to collaboratively help resolve all of the issues.
Mr. Atkins also thanked Chief Raymond for all he does for this community and his exemplary service here during some difficult times.
Answering a question from Mr. Atkins regarding the demographics of the officers in the field, Chief Raymond stated that the Department is made up of approximately 48% African American, 47% White, and the other 5% is Hispanic, Native American, etc. He also said that there is about 70% males and 30% females. Chief Raymond also explained that they came under a consent decree thirty years ago, and Shreveport was the first municipality to come out from under that consent decree. He said that there is a fair representation of the community that they police. Mr. Atkins thanked the Chief once again for his service to this community.
Mr. Burrell echoed the same sentiments as the previous Commissioners in regards to Chief Raymond’s exemplary job with the police department.
Answering a question from Mr. Burrell in regards to policy infractions and investigations, Chief Raymond explained that there are several different ways they take complaints, internal and external. He first talked about the external complaints and said that anybody can file a complaint against an employee of SPD. By law, they have 14 days to initiate an investigation. He also mentioned that Internal Affairs is located in a separate location from the police department to encourage people to come forward. Chief Raymond further explained that, internally, any police officer can have an additional investigation. Often times that is done from a supervisory level against a subordinate who they believe violated one of the department’s policies and procedures. The Internal Affairs Bureau looks at each case from an administrative perspective only; they do not look at anything criminal. If there is indication that activity could be criminal, that case goes to the detectives who conduct a criminal investigation. After the criminal investigation is concluded, they then start an administrative investigation. Chief Raymond also said that officers have a number of rights based on the Louisiana Police Officer Bill of Rights. They have 60 days from the day they initiate the investigation to the day it has to be completed. He also said that there are several other formalities they have to abide by, for example, allowing the member to obtain an attorney, they have to record interviews, provide a notice of investigation that fully explains what the officer is being accused of, etc. Ultimately, that packet is given to the Chief with an opinion from the investigators based on the facts. He said that a sustained complaint means that the allegations did occur; a not sustained complaint means that there is not enough evidence to prove if the allegations occurred or not; and an exonerated complaint means that the officer did exactly what the person complained about, but it is not in violation of the department’s policy. If there is a sustained complaint, they have to hold a disciplinary hearing in which the officer is allowed to come in and respond to the complaint. After that, they determine what the disciplinary action should be.
Mr. Burrell wanted to know if any of the investigations were totally independent of SPD. Chief Raymond said that they are not totally independent, but they have recently come to an agreement with the Louisiana State Police (LSP) in regards to an officer involved shooting which results to death. The
568 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
LSP will come in and take those cases, if they have enough investigators at the time. They do this to provide a better level of transparency. Chief Raymond also pointed out that the majority of the criminal investigations’ results are submitted to the District Attorney’s office. To recap, Chief Raymond said that most of the investigations are done in house. If it is criminal, it is done by SPD’s Detective Bureau; if it is administrative, it is done by the Internal Affairs Bureau. Mr. Burrell thanked the Chief for this information. Mr. Cawthorne stated that young people are beginning to congregate in parking lots. He wanted to know the plan to ensure that violence does not break out during this type of gathering. Chief Raymond explained that there has been quite a bit of discussion regarding this. He explained that they have special operations for these cruising ops. They hire back several officers to prevent violent crime and alleviate the clogging up of intersections. He said that this creates problems for commuters trying to get through a light.
Chief Raymond also said that there was an attempt to encourage people to congregate in areas where they can hang out and play loud music, but unfortunately, it turned violent. He said that they have not found the answer yet, but they are working on gathering ideas and suggestions.
Mr. Hopkins talked about the resolution that is on today’s agenda regarding chokeholds. He wanted to know if the Mayor and Chief Raymond have been in discussions regarding this type of training. Chief Raymond stated that they have already revised their policies and procedures to include some additional language with regards to chokeholds and strangleholds. These policies are now being implemented and taught at the academy.
Mr. Hopkins pointed out that most of the small municipality police forces train at the SPD Academy. Chief Raymond agreed and said that they will be taught with the same type of training and the new policies.
Mr. Young asked the following questions: How do you describe the term “custody”? And how would you describe the obligations that an officer has for a citizen who has been placed into custody? Chief Raymond responded with defining custody as an officer limiting your ability to leave. With regards to the officers’ responsibilities, they are responsible for the person in custody’s safety to the best of their ability, to provide medical treatment, etc.
Mr. Jackson thanked Chief Raymond “for having an open mind”. Mr. Jackson said that he wanted to correct one thing that Chief Raymond stated in regards to people congregating. He said, “Violence didn’t break out at those events; violence broke out by some knuckleheads after or across the street and down the street”. He said that the news and media associates that violence with the events.
Mr. Jackson also asked about a Citizens Review Board. Chief Raymond stated that the intent of most Civil Service Boards in the State have five members; Shreveport is the only city with nine members. It is his understanding when Mayor Glover was in office, the number of board members was increased to provide more citizen oversight of the Police Department. The Board is made up of two police members, two fire members, and five civilians (two civilians are chosen by Southern, two civilians by LSUS, and one civilian is a direct appointment from the Mayor). He said that this entity is already in place that provides for Citizens Review Board. Outside of this, he is certainly open to conversations regarding a Citizens Review Board, but he feels that they would “hit a wall quickly” because they are not allowed based on state statute and civil service law.
He suggested that maybe citizens could come together and talk about an event that happened on a national level. For example, the situation in Atlanta, which he has no influence in nor most citizens in Shreveport does. He explained that they could go through a scenario of what if that happened here.
Chief Raymond cautioned that a Citizens Review Board could start “skewing lines” of what is legal and illegal because of federal statutes, state statutes, civil service law, civil services rules, general orders, etc. that come into effect when discussing something that has occurred locally. He further explained that if there’s a pending criminal litigation or civil litigation, somebody’s rights could be inadvertently violated. He also said that by law, a Citizens Review Board does not have the authority to implement change and would be limited to making suggestions. He believes the benefit would be to have the conversation.
Answering another question from Mr. Jackson regarding body cameras, Chief Raymond said that this has been an unfunded need in the budget. He said that they have reached out for grants where they are available as well as reaching out to companies and private organizations to get quotes. He feels comfortable to say that they will be getting body cameras in the near future.
Mr. Jackson thanked the Chief and expressed his appreciation for everyone who wears the badge.
Mr. Burrell wanted to know if the Chief felt intimidated by the Commissioners’ questions. Chief Raymond stated that he feels perfectly comfortable and not intimidated at all.
Mr. Atkins asked that Chief Raymond briefly describe the role of the Civil Service Board. Chief Raymond explained that the Civil Service Board is there to assist the appointing authority in how they run the organization. They also assist in personnel matters, disciplinary matters, etc.
569 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Chief Raymond further explained that if a complaint is sustained against an officer, and they receive some sort of disciplinary action, that officer can file an appeal with the Civil Service Board. At this point, the Civil Service Board will complete an investigation to determine if the appropriate actions were taken. He also mentioned that the Board has the ability to overturn a decision.
Mr. Chavez talked about the resolution that is on the agenda today for consideration regarding chokeholds and restraints. He said that he researched the lateral vascular neck restraint or LVNR. He understands that this type of restraint, in the wrong hands, could be used for bad. Mr. Chavez wanted to know if there was a different technique that could be used “once the bullets are gone and the taser is out of batteries”. Chief Raymond explained that he was taught the LVNR when he first came onto the department twenty years ago, and at that point, it was not considered a lethal force tactic. At some point over the last 10-15 years, it has been taught by the Academy that you do not utilize the LVNR, except in the instance in which you are in a lethal force situation. Chief Raymond also explained that there are other defensive tactics that can be used if an officer is being choked.
He read aloud his recommendation for the change in policy: all physical restraint maneuvers on the neck and head area and any other physical lack that restricts the flow of blood or oxygen to the brain are prohibited, except when lethal force is authorized, and the members acting in defense of his or her life or for that of another.
Mr. Chavez thanked Chief Raymond for this explanation. He also said that he would not, as a legislator, do something that would put an officer’s life in danger.
Mr. Burrell wanted to know if there were different levels of restraint that a police officer is trained to go through before they use the chokehold. Chief Raymond stated that there is not. He also said that use of force has changed several times over the years. He explained that there used to be something called the “Use of Force Continuum”, where an officer would start at the lower levels of force and encouraged to go through the different levels. It started with an officer in a uniform being on scene, then it moved into verbal commands, then pressure points, and ultimately to hard empty hand less lethal, etc. He continued and said that the only issue with this is that an officer cannot be expected to talk to a person who is shooting at them. So the Force Continuum was done away with, and the Force Wheel was implemented.
Chief Raymond explained that the Force Wheel was an officer in the middle who had several different options in regards to the situation. These included options such as officer presence, verbal commands, pressure points, etc.
Now, the police force uses a Use of Force Option Model. The standard is whatever technique the officer uses has to be objectively reasonable based on the facts and circumstances the officer has. The officer does not necessarily have to go into a particular order. Chief Raymond also said that the officers like to use the lowest force necessary to take a suspect into custody.
Answering a question from Mr. Johnson regarding when the policies were written, Chief Raymond stated that the policies are constantly amended. He also explained that the Use of Force Policy was amended on June 11, 2020 with the prior amendment being July 29, 2016.
Mr. Johnson wanted to know if the policy remained the same after new technology, such as tasers, mace, etc., became available to police officers. Chief Raymond explained that there was not language specific to chokeholds until the amendment that was implemented on June 11, 2020. He also said that they’ve taught for over a decade not to use any lateral vascular chokehold or anything that would restrict airflow on a suspect unless there was lethal force, but it was specified in policy until recently.
Mr. Johnson also wanted to know if there would be a need for lethal force with regards to a person who is already handcuffed. Chief Raymond said that there most likely would not be a need, but there are some situations in which a suspect who was handcuffed was able to retrieve a gun and kill an officer. He said that there should be a less amount of force when dealing with a person who is handcuffed versus a person who is not.
Mr. Johnson wanted to know if it would take multiple officers to restrain a person who is handcuffed. Chief Raymond explained that it probably would not take multiple officers, unless the person was a large person or they had a weapon. He said that it is difficult to write into policy every particular circumstance.
Mr. Johnson then talked about the use of body cams and dash cams. He understands that SPD does not have the manpower that the Chief would like it to be, along with the lack of body cams and dash cams. He believes that legislation would help SPD get to the level to better serve the citizens of Caddo Parish.
Mr. Chavez thanked Chief Raymond for attending the meeting today and answering all of the Commissioners’ questions.
Chancellor John Pierre of Southern University Law Center
570 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Mr. Jackson introduced Chancellor Pierre to the Commission. He also said that this is “a relationship between Caddo Parish and Southern University” who have an end goal in mind, which is to have a law school in Caddo Parish.
Chancellor Pierre thanked the Commissioners and Administration on working with the Southern University System and the Southern University Law Center. Leaders in Caddo Parish has passed a resolution asking legislative leaders in northwest Louisiana for the Board of Regents to bring legal professional education to the region. He gave great commendations to the Commission for providing resources towards the legal education program. Their research in the northwest Louisiana region showed there are fewer legal professions per capita in the area, compared to the rest of the state, signifying there is room for improvement. The Board of Regents reviewed several options including establishing legal establishment opportunities.
Chancellor Pierre had proposed a pathway to legal education opportunities in northwest Louisiana to the Southern University System’s Board of Supervisors, the Board of Regents and the Caddo Parish Commission as well as other organizations that regulate legal professional education for discussion and review. The Board of Supervisors endorsed the pathway and held a meeting on how they would proceed with the proposal. The proposal is available to the public for review. Chancellor Pierre stated that they would have to take logical, measured steps designed for success if they are going to effectively create legal opportunities in the area. He introduced a semester in Shreveport idea proposing that in Spring 2022 - Spring 2023 allowing students in their last semester of law school to complete a curricula in Shreveport, Louisiana. There will be opportunities for externships where students can work in courts, corporate entities, law offices for first-hand experience in the area. In turn, the students will earn academic credit, BAR prep review classes and earn opportunities for permanent employment. Additionally, the region could move the barrier of people not wanting to move to Shreveport for their legal career.
Chancellor Pierre explained that the idea was based on a successful concept instituted in Idaho by a law school to create law career opportunities to take advantage of major employment market in a large city in the state. The idea is a pilot program to gage the demand and enthusiasm in the community. The general plan is upon success of the semester in Shreveport, they will increase the time to a year in Shreveport, which would require accreditation. Then, they could model a branch upon success of the year in Shreveport concept.
Chancellor Pierre stated that they must review facilities and technologies, which he shared the Shreve Memorial Library building is a great location for the concept. It is centrally located to the sights and experience of Shreveport.
Chancellor Pierre encouraged the Commission to push for something different. He continued that amid the Covid19 pandemic funding is shorter than normal, but the need for higher education continues to increase due to a competitive workforce across the nation. He encourages that local institutions could create new methods to finance and deliver higher education during these times. In closing of his presentation, Chancellor Pierre thanked the Commission for supporting the initiation of the pathway.
Mr. Jackson commented that he and Chancellor Pierre has put together an eager working group and requests to get the parts in place before 2022.
Mr. Cawthorne thanked the speaker and commended the idea and wanted to know whether there will be a full time or part time program.
Chancellor Pierre explained that they have not reached that point in their research, but confirmed that many students must work full time while attending law school. Since 2004, Southern University System has offered legal education opportunities part time successfully. At that time, Loyola University was the only law school students could attend. Then, there were law schools across Texas that opened up legal education options. He suggested that they evaluate thoroughly and anticipate future possibilities.

ADMINISTRATOR REPORT
Dr. Wilson provided a copy of the May 2020 Financials to the Commissioners via email. The Clerk of the Commission noted that these financials were also attached to the agenda.
The President of the Commission asked that Attorney Frazier provide an update on the Confederate Monument. Attorney Frazier said that the Daughters of the Confederacy filed for a request for injunction in the State District Court. That matter is set to be heard on June 30, 2020. Dr. Wilson pointed out that this matter has already been voted on by the Commission, and there is up to $500,000 in the budget with regards to the monument. He said that they are just waiting on the outcome of the court hearing.
Dr. Wilson also announced that Juvenile Justice Assistant Director Muriel Burns is retiring from the Caddo Parish Commission after 35 years of service.
Dr. Wilson requested that Attorney Frazier provide clarification with regards to Commissioners participating in Zoom meetings if a quorum is met. Attorney Frazier explained that under the Governor’s Order, a virtual meeting cannot be held unless a quorum cannot be met. She also said that a bill was signed into law stating that a virtual meeting or physical meeting in combination can count towards a quorum, but only under certain circumstances. She said that the new law states that when there is a pandemic or a gubernatorially declared state of emergency, the Commission can meet about: matters that are directly related to the public body’s response to the disaster or emergency and are critical to the health, safety, or welfare of the public; matters that if they are delayed will cause curtailment of vital public services or economic dislocation or hardship; or matters that are critical to the continuation of the business of the public body, and that are not able to be postponed to a meeting held in accordance with the other requirements of the chapter, which means the Commission cannot hold a physical meeting, due to a legal requirements or other deadline that cannot be postponed or delayed. Dr. Wilson requested that Attorney Frazier provide a copy of that to the Commissioners.
COMMUNIQUES/COMMITTEE REPORTS
Mr. Hopkins reminded the Commissioners that a committee was selected for the Charter Review, and there is a timetable in place per the Charter. He suggested the Committee starting meeting as soon as possible.
Mr. Johnson asked for an update on Benteler Steele and Libbey Glass. Dr. Wilson stated that Libbey Glass filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy last week. He also explained that, according to the IDB, they were in arrears with respect to having maintained the number of jobs that the incentive was given. He said that there is a penalty that goes along with that. He also said that Attorney David Wolf is working with Libbey to obtain those funds.
Dr. Wilson also gave an update in regards to Benteler Steele. He said that there were two projects, one is to utilize Sales & Use taxes, and the other was to build a road from Hwy 1 into the plant. He said that the Sales & Use tax incentive is off the table because the time has passed for that. He said that NLEP and Attorney Frazier are reviewing a contract to see if there’s anything that needs to be assessed to with respect to building the road from Hwy 1 into the plant. He does not have all of the information regarding that yet, but will forward the information as it becomes available.
572 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Mr. Atkins congratulated Ms. Burns on her years of service to the Parish.

Mr. Burrell thanked Chief Raymond once again for attending today’s meeting. He is looking forward to meeting with Sheriff Prator.
He also talked about the resolution in regards to Juneteenth. He wished everyone a Happy Juneteenth and encouraged everyone to buy fireworks in celebration of this holiday.
PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Mr. Chavez reminded the Commissioners and the public that under Communiques/Committee Reports, Commissioners are not restricted or censored. He received several phones calls in regards to Monday’s meeting saying that someone should have stopped a Commissioner from talking. He reiterated that the Commissioners cannot stop another Commissioner from talking during Communiques. Mr. Chavez said that “being a leader and leading by being kind, I don’t think we can go wrong with that”.
He also talked about the protests that are happening in Shreveport and Caddo Parish. Mr. Chavez was proud that the protests have been peaceful, and Shreveport/Caddo Parish has set the tone for America and the rest of the Nation to show that “we can truly come together for one goal”.
PUBLIC HEARING ON ORDINANCES
Mr. Chavez asked if there was anyone to speak in support of or in opposition of the following ordinance:
Ordinance No. 5959 of 2020, an ordinance amending the Budget of Estimated Revenues & Expenditures for the Oil & Gas Fund for the year 2020 to provide an appropriation for the purchase of masks to combat COVID-19 and to otherwise provide with respect thereto
There being no one to speak in favor of or in opposition to the ordinance, the President closed the public hearing.
ORDINANCES (for final passage)
It was moved by Mrs. Gage-Watts, seconded by Mr. Jackson, that Ordinance No. 5959 of 2020, an ordinance amending the Budget of Estimated Revenues & Expenditures for the Oil & Gas Fund for the year 2020 to provide an appropriation for the purchase of masks to combat COVID-19 and to otherwise provide with respect thereto be adopted.
Mrs. Gage-Watts would like the Commissioners to support this ordinance today and help mitigate the spread of COVID-19. She said that this ordinance would help provide masks to the citizens of Caddo Parish. She believes that this along with social distancing, handwashing, and sanitizing are proven methods to keep the spread of COVID-19 down. She asked that the Commissioners support this ordinance.
Answering a question from Mr. Taliaferro regarding a plan in place for distributing the masks, Mrs. Gage-Watts suggested that each of the Commissioners allocate them within their own perspective districts. Mr. Taliaferro was curious to see if the masks were going to be delivered based on the areas that needed them the most. Mrs. Gage-Watts pointed out that no one is exempt from COVID-19, and there is no cure or vaccine. She encouraged all to wear masks while in public.
Mr. Burrell believes that this ordinance is timely. He said that there are several states that have increasing COVID-19 cases.
Friendly amendment by Mr. Young to change the word “masks” to “masks/face shields”. Mrs. Gage-Watts accepted this amendment.
573 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Mr. Young read that face shields can be a way of protecting a person from the virus. He also said that it could be complimentary to wearing a face mask as well. He asked for this amendment, so that the Commission could have the option of getting face shields to compliment the masks.
Attorney Frazier wanted to know if the face shield could be used in lieu of a mask. Mrs. Gage-Watts stated that it could. She said that it would be sufficient because it could be used in the same way.
Answering a question from Mr. Jackson regarding if there will be a request for reimbursement from the CARES Act, Dr. Wilson stated that they will request a reimbursement. Mr. Chavez asked that the masks be procured from a local business.
Mr. Taliaferro stated that he is ok with the masks, but the face shields are more expensive. He said that they would also have to determine who would get a face shield and who would get a mask.
Mr. Jackson said that Mr. Taliaferro brings up a good point, but he believes that it would eventually break even and level out. He believes that it can be rationed out.
At this time, Mrs. Gage-Watts’ motion carried as amended, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro, and Young (12). NAYS: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). ABSENT: (0).

Friendly amendment by Mr. Young to add the phrase “a bipartisan” before the word “federal” in title and to add “a meaningful bipartisan reform bill” in the text of the Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved. Mr. Epperson accepted.

Mr. Chavez said that the President passed an Executive Order this past week that reads: law enforcement officers provide the essential protection that all Americans required to raise their families and lead productive lives. The relationship between our fellow citizens and law enforcement officers is an important element in their ability to provide that protection. By working directly with their communities law enforcement officers can help foster a safe environment where we all can prosper. Unfortunately, there have been instances in which some officers have misused their authority, challenging the trust of the American people with tragic consequences for individual victims, their communities and our nation. All
578 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Americans are entitled to live with the confidence that the law enforcement officers and agencies in their communities will live up to our nation's founding ideals and will protect the rights of all persons, particularly, in effect, African American communities. We must redouble our efforts as a nation to swiftly address instances of misconduct.
Mr. Taliaferro said that there are some provisions in this bill that he agrees with, but there are many more that he does not agree with. He will not support this bill in its current form without bipartisan discussion and reform. He would like to see this resolution’s changes in writing prior to voting on it.
Mr. Atkins stated that he shares some of the views of Mr. Taliaferro. He also applauded Mr. Young for including “a meaningful bipartisan” language added to the resolution.
Mr. Jackson clarified that Mr. Young’s amendment is pushing for a more bipartisan effort. Mr. Young agreed. He also said that it seems that the amendment gives the opportunity to emphasize the bipartisan fashion. Mr. Jackson also added the executive orders do not have effects of law and can expire.
Mr. Epperson agreed with Mr. Jackson and pointed out that there is a Democratic controlled House with a Republican controlled Senate. He commended Mr. Young for his amendment in regards to this resolution.
Mr. Hopkins said that there are some things in the Federal Justice & Policing Act that he agrees with, but there are several items that he is concerned with. He suggested that the Commissioners wait until the bill has been vetted through both places and conference committed. He does not believe that this a good bill. Mr. Hopkins said that he is not prepared to vote in favor of this resolution today.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that if any provision or item of this resolution or the application thereof is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions, items or applications which can be given effect without the invalid provisions, items or applications, and to this end, the provisions of this resolution are hereby declared severable.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this resolution shall take effect immediately.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that all resolutions or parts thereof in conflict herewith are hereby repealed.
It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mrs. Gage-Watts, that Resolution No. 45 of 2020, a resolution urging and requesting law enforcement agencies and heads of governing bodies with
580 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Caddo Parish to retrain officers regarding chokeholds and restraints and to otherwise provide with respect thereto be adopted.
Mr. Hopkins does not feel that this resolution is needed anymore due to the changes and amendments the Chief previously explained. He also explained that these policy changes will filter into the academy, which several municipalities in the Parish utilize for training. He appreciates Mr. Johnson and Mrs. Gage-Watts for bringing forth this resolution, but does not feel that it is needed any longer.
Mr. Chavez said that the City of Shreveport implemented some policy changes. He asked that the Clerk forward it to the Commissioners. Mr. Chavez read aloud the policy change: the purpose of the General Order is to establish guidelines for the appropriate use of force by member. It shall be the policy of the Shreveport Policed Department that members use only force that is objectively reasonable to effectively bring an incident under control while protecting the lives of the officers and others. Officers use only level of force with a reasonable prudent officer would use under the same worst similar circumstances. Mr. Chavez agreed with Mr. Hopkins and believes steps have already been made.
Mr. Taliaferro is concerned with any verbiage limiting the use of this technique should the officer’s life be in danger. He said that the President’s Executive Order addresses this concern to his satisfaction. Mr. Taliaferro would like to include the verbiage of the President’s Executive Order calling for nationwide police reform, specifically banning the use of chokeholds and vascular neck restraints, with the exception where the officer’s life or the lives of others were in danger.
Mr. Burrell explained that this resolution reinforces his position on training and upgrading law enforcement. He pointed out that a resolution is not forcing anyone to do anything, but only recommending this reform.
Mr. Johnson said that the resolution was written for officers to be retrained and review the policies. He pointed out that the Parish has constables, deputy constables, etc. that should have this same type of review and reform. He asked that the Commissioners support this resolution.
Mr. Young stated that he will vote in favor of this resolution because of the word “retrain”. He also said that all organizations can benefit for improvement, and that comes from practice and training.
Mrs. Gage-Watts said that the biggest room there is, is the room for improvement. She also pointed out that each year, the Commissioners have to take an ethics course. She said that this resolution would be a suggestion to the police officers as to why the chokehold is no longer acceptable. Mrs. Gage-Watts said that it is the responsibility of the Commissioners as legislators to pass this information on.

Motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Burrell, Cawthorne, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, and Young (9).

Mr. Burrell wanted to know why this has not already been done.
Mr. Taliaferro stated that he is in support of Resolution No. 47 requiring all law enforcement officers to use body cams and dash cams. He said that this is to protect the citizens and the officers. He would like the resolution to read that this pertains to any law enforcement organization regardless of size and include any sworn official performing any law in any law enforcement capacity, such as City Marshal’s Office, State Police, Parish Constables, etc.
Mr. Johnson explained that the resolution states exactly this in the text. He further explained that this would be forwarded to all 64 parishes of Louisiana to ensure that this reaches all law enforcement agencies.
Mrs. Gage-Watts stated that Resolution No. 46 is to encourage legislators to change its current policy to prevent any man or woman from possibly experiencing this unethical behavior.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Caddo Parish Sheriff, Shreveport City Marshal and all Caddo Parish Constables are asked to administratively implement the legislation herein contained.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution is effective immediately upon its passage.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution will be forwarded to the Louisiana Governor, the President of the Louisiana Senate, the Speaker of the Louisiana House, members of the Caddo Parish state legislative delegation, the governing bodies of Shreveport, Blanchard, Oil City, Greenwood and Vivian and their mayors, the Caddo Parish Sheriff, Shreveport City Marshal and all Caddo Parish Constables.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that all resolutions or parts thereof in conflict herewith are hereby repealed.
It was moved by Mr. Epperson, seconded by Mrs. Gage-Watts, to englobo and adopt the following resolutions:
Resolution No. 48 of 2020, a resolution supporting the federal government’s efforts to rename military facilities named after Confederate soldiers and remove Confederate symbols from the Capitol through the National Defense Authorization Act and other means, and to otherwise provide with respect thereto
Resolution No. 49 of 2020, a resolution supporting the renaming of Fort Polk and to otherwise provide with respect thereto
Mr. Epperson said that these resolutions are a fitting tribute on behalf of unifying our Nation.
Mr. Atkins stated that he will not be in support of these resolutions. He said that he will leave this one up to the Secretary of Defense.
Mr. Taliaferro gave the following statement:
588 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
The case for keeping the monuments as well as military installations has everything to do with preserving history in a way that museums never could. Our monuments serve to be a daily reminder of who we are as participants in our history, a part of our landscape. Their physical presence testifies to our challenges as a Nation, our mistakes and our triumphs. Our history at times has been horrific and embarrassing. So we stand in line with other countries who share the same or more horrific experiences on their own soil. History will attest that the beliefs, actions, and ideology of the Confederacy were on the wrong side of history. I have to remind myself that the soldiers of the North and South, my ancestors as well black and white, fought for no other reason but because their homes were being attacked. I’m concerned that if implemented that this could set the dangerous precedent for removal of any other symbols of our history based on unflattering participation in history. I would hate to believe that the memorial dedicated to men and women of questionable character could be removed as part of the moral police. Instead, maybe the monument representing our enemies or our past failures, maybe these monuments representing triumph of good over evil—maybe justice, redemption, and forgiveness.
Substitute motion by Mr. Chavez, seconded by Mr. Taliaferro, to vote on each resolution separately.
Mr. Young gave the following statement:
I just wanted to read some of my opinion into the record so that people would understand why I'm voting where I am on this issue. I've studied history for many years. As a graduate student, particularly ancient history. And, and a lot of monuments histories are always partial, they're always based on partial facts because we're human. They're also always interpretations of partial facts. Everyone alive today has the power to make history too. Sometimes we make history by changing symbols of public honor. Sometimes we realize that honor conferred in the past, isn't honor truly deserved—changes we make to demonstrate but what we honor now is different from what some of our ancestors honored in the past are beneficial. History can't be changed, but it can be reinterpreted, and we can make it by changing and improving ourselves. If our monuments glorify wrongs without teaching that they were wrong, in terms of our values today, then they aren't really educational or beneficial. The best way to reassess what we value, and honor it properly, is to practice love for our neighbors, by putting ourselves in their shoes. When a neighbor tells us that they're injured by something to put ourselves in their shoes and try to feel the injury ourselves. This is the teaching that I was raised with in the church, and it's the guidance that I feel when I pray about this topic, and I want you all to understand that, as I vote. Thank you.
Mr. Burrell said that he originally had mixed feelings. Some of his ancestors were Confederate soldiers, and some fought against the Confederacy. He also said that if you do not understand and appreciate history, it will definitely be repeated. Mr. Burrell said that this part of history is not something to continue to glorify. He also said that there are “so many who use it more for oppression than they do to glorify”. He believes that this monument should be placed in a museum, not in front of a building of justice or a park that is shared by all people.
Mr. Epperson emphasized that both Resolution No. 48 and Resolution No. 49 came out of a bipartisan committee in the Senate.

COMMUNIQUES AND COMMITTEE REPORTS
Mr. Jackson wished all of the fathers a Happy Father’s Day. He also thanked the Air National Guard for their support during the COVID-19 testing. He also thanked Chancellor Pierre for coming to the meeting today and providing and update on the law school.
He also emphasized that “civility is always better than to humiliate somebody”. He also encouraged everyone to continue to wear masks and keep social distancing to help reduce the spread of the coronavirus. He also wished everyone a Happy Juneteenth.
Mr. Cawthorne also wished everyone a Happy Juneteenth weekend. He also said that President Trump will be speaking in Tulsa, OK this weekend. He said that it is also the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Riots. He explained that this occurred on Memorial Day weekend, May 31, 1921. The two main characters in this whole drama is a shoeshine guy by the name of Dick Rowland, and a white 17 year old elevator operator by the name of Sarah Page. Mr. Rowland is an African-American man who was accused of assaulting Ms. Page and taken into custody. Rumors began to circulate throughout the city, and both white and black mobs began forming outside of the courthouse. A shot is fired and the white mob start rampaging through the black neighborhoods burning down homes. This neighborhood is a 40 block neighborhood, so it left thousands of people homeless. There were also about 191 businesses in the neighborhood that were destroyed. Because of the denim of racism. It has taken 100 years for that city to recover from the result of losing all of those businesses.
Mrs. Gage-Watts wished all of the fathers a Happy Father’s Day. She also wished everyone a Happy Juneteenth. She also encouraged all to wear masks and practice social distancing. Mrs. Gage-Watts said that this pandemic is not over.
She also would like to comment on something that was said earlier as elected officials. She said that sometimes, citizens speak to the Commissioners as if they should not be treated as citizens first. She said that they deserve respect and should not be spoken to in a way of offense. She agreed with Mr. Jackson and asked that everyone treat everyone with civility.
Mr. Atkins wanted to point out that he would have been supportive of Resolution No. 43 if the bipartisan language was added to the title. He said that he could have gotten behind it if the resolution had a little more work.
591 Commission Minutes June 18, 2020
Mr. Epperson thanked Mr. Alan Clark for all of his hard work on situation on Alma Street. He also reminded everyone that June 25th was the beginning of the Korean War. He expressed appreciation for all those who served during the Korean War.
He also mentioned that COVID-19 is real. His mother contracted the virus, but was cleared this weekend. He encouraged all to mask up and stay safe.
Mrs. Gage-Watts also announced that June 19th is Sickle Cell Awareness Day.
Mr. Taliaferro gave the following statement:
My fellow commissioners and citizens of Caddo first and foremost I want to know that I love my country I think it's the greatest on Earth, and I believe we are God's chosen nation to do His will and work wherever necessary. I love the people of Caddo. I'm proud of my profession in law enforcement and proud of my military service and offer no apologies for that steadfast love and pride in both professions. And those of you that know mem know that I would protect and treat you and your family as my own. Not many would say that in this day and time, but you see, that's who we are as first responders: we're running towards danger, not away and protecting, not hurting. The violence I've witnessed around our great country hurts and disappoints—and yes at some level it angers me. The violence perpetuated by a small cowardly finite group of extremists and anarchists, at the very least in my opinion, hijacked much of the passion, the soul, the peaceful intent of well-meaning protesters’ voices of all races that marched against systemic racism. This caused us to focus more on the melee than the message in my service as a law enforcement officer I have mourned along the innocent victims’ families who suffered an untimely loss of a loved one at the hands of their attacker. And I tell you today that I also mourn for those families who suffered similar untimely tragedies and loss of a loved one at the hands of members of our law enforcement community who exercise not only poor judgment, but a willful disregard towards the welfare and the treatment of their fellow human beings, a child of God. The actions of a few—those anarchists embedded among our peaceful protesters and those undesirables within the Brother and Sisterhood of law enforcement have cast more than just the dark shadow. But contempt and hate for both groups, you know under our rights as a free people I applaud support and defend the rights of our citizens to peacefully protest any injustice which affects their quality of life and prevents their pursuit of happiness, but I condemn and would seek prosecution to the fullest extent of the law of those who, through their own selfish hate believe that burning another citizen’s business, stealing or damaging another person's property, harming or killing the innocent, brings resolution and understanding to any cause, especially in justice because of one's color. In closing, my fellow Commissioners and Caddo residents, we are in a wilderness that just as a blind man depends on his service dog to guide him around the obstacles in his path, we need God to do the same for us. James McManus of Word of God ministries made this point on a Sunday Service. It says when a man hates another man; takes arms against another man or his family, that man doesn't have a problem with the other man, he has a problem with God. For if that man loved God, there would be no hate or malice against his fellow man. God wants us to kneel before him and ask that we are allowing him to lead us out of the wilderness. I love you all, make it a great night.
There being no further business to come before the body, the meeting was adjourned at 7:00 p.m.

CITIZENS COMMENTS
Christine Draper gave the following comment:
This is Christine Draper. Okay. I want to go through my unalienable rights that came from my creator and I do believe that. Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. I can’t have life wearing a mask. It is not for me. I cannot wear one. I won’t even go into that. Liberty is my freedom. Freedom is not to wear a mask. I do believe if your sick wear one, wear one. If you’re not sick, don’t wear one. Take these names down because you need to be a little bit more study before you vote that we have to wear a mask. Dr. Shiva Ayyaduria and Dr. Rashid Buttar, they were the top in America before covid. They’ve got things to say. Why don’t you check them out. Check americanlibertyreports.com out…Then I want you to, um… OSHA says that the masks may help. I don’t know about y’all’s language, but it means may help and may not help. Hypercapnia and Hypoxia will find out that the masks do more harm because on the, um. CDC.gov says you’ve got to take care to support your vital organs. It’s on there and it doesn’t say a mask will help…. Hypoxia and hypercapnia by wearing a mask. Wearing a mask is causing shortness of breath, dizziness and headaches for wearing a mask too long and rebreathing your own carbon dioxide. It basically shuts your brain and your kidneys and your vital organs down. Hypoxia is depriving the body of adequate oxygen supply. It can damage your lungs. People are actually playing and buying of this craziness. So when… I want people to die because I won’t wear a mask. I think the people that don’t do a lot of study up in our little politics, government. They might be wanting to kill them. You need to check out also too…You just said today that is asymptomatic. It is proven that asymptomatic cannot…contagious. I know y’all believe it too. So, uh, they’re not contagious. I can’t get… I won’t go into that, but, uh, anyways if you have a fever and sick wear a mask. And if you don’t have a fever and you’re not sick you should not be commanded to wear a mask. So a doctor… and he also said that his computer model said that it might help if you wearing a mask. So, I’m just saying right now that I need all of this…you’re going to take my rights away and make me wear a mask. When I’m not sick, I can’t get it. Now there’s a reason I can’t wear a mask, which I ain’t going into. I hope y’all would do a little bit of study on this. Look up some of these things. Uh, doctors who were not… they were, they were doctor’s before covid. Y’all need to look up some of this stuff and who says I can’t be... I’m being told that I…and you’re also separating the people. I’m wanting to kill people because I can’t wear a mask.
Mark Metticus gave the following comment:
This is Mark Medicus at 10455 Linwood. As a card carrying democrat, I have a few questions concerning face masks. And, uh, one of them is if the masks work so well why are we social distancing? And if social distancing works, then why are we wearing masks? What really gets me if masks and social distancing work, then why are many businesses still closed. I don’t understand hat. Better than that people are scared of being fined for congregating in crowds. As if, catching a deadly disease and dying a horrible death wasn’t enough? And who in the w- heck decided, whoever decided a liquor store is more essential than a church is obviously an alcoholic. Oh, let me get this straight also. There’s no cure for a virus that can be killed by sanitizers and hand soap. And I am trying to really understand this. I don’t want to confuse, uh, covid cases and really and truly our covid deaths are decreasing overall. I’m looking at the stats on the screen right now. When our restaurants were closed, we went over to Texas. My wife and I went over to Texas with some of our friends and went ahead and ate over there because their restaurants work. They had some things in gear to keep it safe. We spent money over there. And, will force us to Bossier to use their services and freedoms if you turn on something mandatory. I implore each of you to consider the consequences of the government demanding a requirement rather than strongly recommending an action. Sit back and don’t let emotions take control. Our Sherriff’s department is the finest anywhere and their services are much better served for much more serious issues than this. I really want you to reconsider this. You should think through this and don’t make masks mandatory. Strongly recommend them, but don’t make them mandatory. We still are the United States of America. All right. I appreciate you and thank you so much.
Jabbtaylor emailed the following statement:
I do not agree with the mask mandate. I want to keep my liberties which include the right to or NOT to wear a mask. It has been proven that the masks do not really work. If someone wants to wear mask, let them. But do not mandate that I wear one. It is an overreach of government to tell me what to do with my own body. Today it is a mask, what will it be tomorrow? Vaccines? Chips? No way!! A stand has to be made now! Vote NO MASK MANDATE!
Ms. Patsy Lavery emailed the following statement:
593 I feel I know how you feel on this issue. I hope you vote in support of masks and go with the City of Shreveport on this. This is the only way to get this in control for everybody working together. We wear ours when we go out. I do not feel my rights are infringed on as many state. Too many I know have got it, had it or died with it.
Ms. Donesa Walker emailed the following statement:
Absolutely one hundred percent against violating the rights of Americans by mandating the wearing of masks! Donesa Walker, M. Ed. LearningRx of Shreveport
Ms. Shirley Fisher emailed the following statement:
I support both of these measure and think that they could save lives.

NEW BUSINESS
It was moved by Mr. Jackson, seconded by Mrs. Gage-Watts, that Ordinance No. 5962 of 2020, an emergency ordinance mandating masks or facial coverings in certain establishments and public places; to provide penalties for the violation of same, and to otherwise provide with respect thereto be moved to Thursday’s Regular Session for adoption.
Amendment by Mr. Jackson, seconded by Mr. Young, that the Parish Administrator may use CARES Act Funding to hire private security to help ensure enforcement, if needed.
Mr. Jackson explained that he saw on the news that Sheriff said that he did not have the manpower and would enforce it “if they got around to it”. Mr. Jackson also mentioned that New Orleans has utilized private security companies to be able to join forces with their zoning, code enforcement, and NOPD to help ensure compliance of the face covering mandate.
Mr. Chavez asked Attorney Frazier to speak on the legalities of private security enforcing public law. Attorney Frazier explained that she would have to look into it and see what New Orleans has
594 put in place. She does not see any issue if its “feet on the ground” to report to the proper authorities, but she would need to research the matter further.
Mr. Burrell said that from the conversation he heard, he does not feel that Sheriff Prator is in support of this mandate.
It was moved by Mr. Chavez, seconded by Mr. Lazarus, to suspend the rules and allow Sheriff Prator to speak at this time. Motion carried unanimously.
Sheriff Prator clarified that he did not say whether or not he was in favor of the masks. He pointed out that the Sheriff’s Office has to “juggle a lot of balls”. They will report and respond to complaints, provided they are not dealing with a more pressing matter.
Sheriff Prator continued and said “our jobs as leaders is to clarify and not confuse”. He understands that the City of Shreveport has a mask mandate, and the Parish is considering one. He wanted to know if this would include all of the municipalities in the Parish, or just the unincorporated areas. Sheriff Prator also said that the Sheriff’s Office to an oath to uphold the laws and the Constitution of Louisiana, as well as, the laws and the Constitution of the United States. He said that they will not ignore a law that the Commission passes, but they will use discretion in the way they enforce it and respond to it.
He also cautioned the Commission on hiring private security to start enforcing laws. Mr. Jackson clarified that the private company would not be the enforcement, but would be there to report the violations to the Sheriff’s Office. He said that the private company would be “boots on the ground, eyes and ears, to help ensure compliance”.
Mr. Chavez had some questions regarding the private security company. He wanted to know how the private company could force a private entity to furnish their ID if they have no post- certification or public power. Mr. Jackson clarified that the ordinance puts the onus on the business. This ordinance is to ensure that businesses are making sure that the patrons are complying. Mr. Chavez is not sure that he wants to put responsibility on the business.
Attorney Frazier clarified that it is her understanding that the amendment is to use private security, if needed. It is also her understanding that any private persons would not be doing citations, but would be reporting violations to the Sheriff to enforce them at his discretion, when his deputies have time. Mr. Jackson clarified that he is taking out the discretion point. He said that if a complaint has been reported, then they would get a citation.
Point of Clarification by Mr. Burrell. He said that he did not say that the Sheriff didn’t support masks, he just wanted to know if he was in support of what the Commission is wanting to do.
Mr. Young pointed out that the Commissioners recently received an ordinance in their emails with several changes suggested to him by the business and legal community. Some of the changes include no longer requiring the businesses to distribute masks to people if they don’t have them; remove the restrictions on non-business gatherings that are not taking place in business establishments, i.e. protests downtown, field parties, etc.; and no penalties for individuals, but instead can be removed from the premises if the individual refuses to wear a mask. Mr. Young pointed out that several businesses he spoke to want to protect their employees, and could do so easier with a local ordinance put in place.
Mr. Young also talked about the violations. He said that after a warning, the business could get a violation, or it can also have its license suspended or revoked instead of a violation.
Answering a question from Mr. Young regarding where this can be enforced, Attorney Bernstein said that this would only apply to the unincorporated areas of the Parish.
Mr. Young also wanted to know if this was in the Commission’s legal authority. He asked that Attorney Frazier would speak briefly on that matter. Attorney Frazier explained that under the 10th Amendment, the states absolutely have the right via their state government and local governments to provide for the health, public safety and welfare of their citizens. She said that the Supreme Court recognizes the legal rights of the local and state governments to govern in this area. She feels that it is well within the Commission’s rights as government to require these.
He also wanted to know if it would be any benefit to the Parish on getting an Attorney General’s opinion on this ordinance. Attorney Frazier stated that it would take approximately 6-8 weeks to receive an Attorney General’s opinion back. She also mentioned that an Attorney General’s opinion is only an opinion from another attorney, and is not something that can absolve a party from any legal liabilities.
Mr. Young also pointed out that places of worship are not mentioned in this ordinance, only businesses and business establishments.
It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mr. Jackson, that the amended version of Ordinance No. 5962 of 2020, amending the second offense fine to say “up to $500”, and to include that the Parish Administrator may use CARES Act Funding to hire private security to help ensure enforcement, if needed be moved to Thursday’s Regular Session for adoption. 595 Point of Clarification from Mr. Chavez. He wanted to who was billing the fine, and who would the check be written out to. Mr. Johnson stated that it would be payable to the Caddo Parish Commission.
Mr. Atkins stated that he is disappointed in today’s discussion. He said that the businesses in this community are already struggling, and this would be more regulation. The businesses would have to ensure that their customers have masks, and if they don’t, they will need to provide them with one. He believes that this is an inappropriate action that is being considered.
He believes that more compliance will be had if the Commission “requests people to do things, not demand people to do things”. He thinks that this is a bad idea and will not support any of this.
Mr. Atkins also pointed out that this would apply for the incorporated portions of the Parish which has the least population density, the least amount of interaction between citizens. He believes that those citizens would be even more outraged by this ordinance and “they’re likely to revolt against the action”.
Mr. Atkins said that he would be in support of a resolution to encourage the use of masks, but would be opposed to anything that mandates the use of masks.
Mrs. Gage-Watts said that this legislation to mandate mass in Caddo parish is in response to the public health crisis, the global COVID-19 pandemic coronavirus. She said that 240 people have died in Caddo Parish due to the virus in four months, and the numbers are steadily rising with no cure in sight. She said that the Commission is obligated to protect the at-risk population, the elderly, the disabled citizens of Caddo Parish. She also pointed out that frontline workers are risking their lives daily to provide patient care and essential services. Mrs. Gage-Watts said that there have been several businesses that has asked for the Commission’s help to enforce masks while customers are inside their businesses. She said that this pandemic is a constantly evolving situation. “We must stand on what we do know that works, which is masks or facial coverings,” she said. Mrs. Gage-Watts asked that the Commissioners vote in favor of this ordinance.
Mr. Taliaferro said that there are too many questions and changes to consider this ordinance at this time. He does not believe it is the Commission’s responsibility to legislate medical issues. He also believes that business owners should not be told how to run their businesses. They should have that opportunity to make the decisions about their business for themselves. He reiterated that his position has always been that making medical or healthcare decisions is not under the scope of the Caddo Parish Commission.
Mr. Taliaferro said that COVID-19 is a serious issue, but there are treatments now that they did not have before. He also pointed out that ventilator use is down.
He also said that he is a product of law enforcement and is a rule follower, “but not at the expense of relinquishing my freedom”.
Mr. Hopkins stated that he supported the funding for COVID-19 tests and masks for the underserved, along with encouraging people to wear a mask, but he cannot support a mandate. He pointed out that this mandate is for the rural area in the Parish. “We’re penalizing the wrong people,” he said. Mr. Hopkins said that he would be in favor of asking and encouraging someone to wear a mask, but not mandate it.
Mr. Lazarus agreed with Mr. Hopkins and Mr. Atkins. He said that this is “a step too far”. Mr. Lazarus said that this mandate would mainly affect Districts 1 and 11. He also pointed out that the Commissioners just now received these amendments and believes that there should be more time to peruse them. He will not be in support of this mandate.
Mr. Chavez does not agree with this either. He said that the small businesses are hurting right now and several had to close because of COVID. He also pointed out that a business has the right to restrict service to somebody and can mandate that a mask be worn within their establishment. He said that they can choose to run their business and the safety of their employees, any way that they need. Mr. Chavez asked for additional time to review this ordinance. He also said that he disagrees wholeheartedly with private enforcement. He does not want to see a private business going into our businesses and tell them how to run their business.
Mr. Jackson mentioned that this will not only affect citizens in the unincorporated areas of the Parish. He said that he and several others go to businesses in north Caddo that are not in Shreveport and not in Blanchard. He asked that the Commissioners support this ordinance as amended.
Mr. Johnson pointed out that we are in the middle of a pandemic right now. He also said that the Commission has been urging and requesting people to do different things, but the coronaviruses are increasing, not decreasing. He asked that everyone wear a mask until the numbers decrease.
Mr. Johnson also mentioned that there have been several amendments to this ordinance to help lax the requirements for the businesses. He gave an example of changing the language from “shall” to “may”. He asked that the Commission support this ordinance and its amendments. 596 Mr. Burrell believes that the Commission has gotten to a point where an issue of safety has been politicized. He said that wearing a mask gives him a sense of comfort when he goes into a store or out in the public. Mr. Burrell said, “we are at war with an invisible enemy that can attack any of us at any time”. He believes the Commission as government body does have a responsibility to the people to keep them safe.
Mr. Burrell also mentioned that there are some questions with the amendments in this ordinance. He said that the ordinance is a “piece of legislation in progress”.
Call for the Question by Mr. Cawthorne, seconded by Mr. Epperson. Motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro, and Young (11). NAYS: Commissioner Jackson (1). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0).
Point of Clarification by Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson explained that this is an emergency ordinance. He wanted to know why this was not being adopted today. Attorney Frazier stated that it is on today’s agenda for “authorize introduction” of the ordinance and resolution. This would need to be voted on to move to tomorrow’s agenda where it can be adopted.
At this time, Mr. Johnson’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Burrell, Cawthorne, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Jackson, Johnson, and Young (7). NAYS: Commissioners Atkins, Chavez, Hopkins, Lazarus, and Taliaferro (5). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0).
It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mr. Epperson, that Resolution No. 56 of 2020, a resolution enacting a COVID-19 threat level system within Caddo Parish and otherwise providing with respect thereto be moved to Thursday’s Regular Session for adoption.
Mr. Hopkins wanted to know who determines the threat levels. Mr. Johnson explained that the Commission, in conjunction with Dr. Whyte and the hospitals, will talk about the number of cases and determine which phase the Parish is in. Mr. Hopkins asked if it would go through the emergency preparedness. Mr. Johnson said that it could go through that.
Mr. Jackson pointed out that the Commission does have an Office of Homeland Security and a Homeland Security director required of the Parish to have in place by the Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness Act for Louisiana. He mentioned that he wanted to correlate with the office. He requested Dr. Wilson to verify the homeland management group and to correlate with them.
Dr. Wilson confirmed that the homeland Security office functions well and we must utilize it.
Mr. Jackson further stated that the office can coordinate with doctors, police, fire and other groups. He also believed that the Commission President the chair of that group. Dr. Wilson acknowledged that he and other Parish Directors have sat in the group and that the Parish does represent in the group and the Commission President can sit in on meetings. He also confirmed that there are no issues with the Homeland Security Office’s operations.
Mr. Jackson stated that Mr. Johnson is providing a threat level and there is a group to assess it. He continued to state in regards to racial injustice, the COVID19 statistics disproportionally affect the African-American community and people want to return to normal operations. He commented that there people are being impacted by the virus, not at their own fault, and stated that Pastor Blake was healthy and before he contracted the virus. He concluded that in the fight against the virus the Commission remembers all people affected by COVID19.
Mr. Atkins stated that everybody is affected by COVID19 regardless of demographic and everyone is affected in some way. He stated that he does not trust the threat level assessment and views it as an expansion of government control to mandate masks. He concluded that he will not be in support of the mandate.
Dr. Whyte commented that she there were many points that she both can agree and disagree with. She explained to the Commission that hospitalizations are higher now than when the pandemic started and that here are fewer people on ventilators due to a change in treatments and deaths. She stated that they are still experiencing a pandemic and, regardless of age and healthiness, people’s risk and symptoms vary. She personally mentioned that her family was affected by the virus, her husband flat-lined several times and his small business is suffering as well. She continued that they have asked and pushed and hollered and raised voices to wear masks, but the Parish must take action for itself. She also stated that the mask mandate is not asking citizens to wear masks 24/7 but to wear a mask for the brief period of time that they will be in a public area that social distancing is not possible. She implores everyone to consider the public health, such as retail store employees who go to work around the public every day.
Mr. Johnson commented that they typically vote based on expert opinions and hopes the Committee will vote following Dr. Whyte advice on the mask mandate. He added that the statistics for the 597 number of deaths due to COVID19 in Louisiana have dropped from about 70% Black and 30% White to 52% Black and 46% White and that he virus affects everybody regardless of income or other boundaries. He expressed concerns that the Commission can’t agree any better on public health issue. The Commission has often stepped up for public safety and he implored the Commission to do what is best for all their districts regardless of rural or urban location.
Mr. Chavez informed the Commission that Dr. Whyte had to leave the meeting at this time.
Mr. Burrell expressed that during the World Trade Center terrorist attack the President at that time instituted a threat level which gave the country a sense of relief and addressed to Commissioner Atkins that the threat levels are not government overreach.
Mr. Epperson asked Dr. Wilson whether Robert Jump is over the Homeland Security Office. Dr. Wilson responded that the Director of Homeland Security is Sherriff Prator and Robert Jump is a coordinator in the office under the Sherriff.
Mr. Epperson also wanted to know whether masks were mandatory at the casinos. Dr. Wilson was unsure whether there is a requirement to wear a mask to enter the casinos.
Mr. Taliaferro requested to know if the Parish has consulted with the Homeland Office before adopting the threat level idea and whether they are duplicating the effort since the CDC has a threat level. Mr. Johnson stated that they can adopt legislation from the state, but the goal is to target what is best for Caddo Parish and make a policy as overseers of a local government.
Mr. Taliaferro stated that the threat level would be beneficial and he would like to consult the Homeland Security Office before voting on the resolution. Mr. Chavez responded that the movement is to authorize an introduction.
Mr. Jackson suggested that they do not wait until the next meeting to seek out expertise, instead to take advantage of phone and email to gather information.
Mr. Chavez requested the Commission Clerk to forward a copy of the ordinance to Sherriff Prator over the Homeland Security Office.
At this time, Mr. Johnson’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Jackson, Johnson, Taliaferro, and Young (9). NAYS: Commissioners Atkins, Hopkins, and Lazarus (3). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0).
There being no further business to come before the body, the meeting was adjourned at 2:34 p.m.

Date: July 7th, 2020 ______Mario Chavez Caddo Parish Commission President Recipient: Kenneth Epperson, Sr., Stormy Gage-Watts Letter: Greetings, We, the citizens of Shreveport, Louisiana, supported by friends, family, tourists, and allies, are requesting that the Confederate monument be removed from the Caddo Parish courthouse grounds. We are requesting to relocate the monument. If there is a substantial amount of time in between the time it takes for the monument to be relocated, we as that a resolution be submitted, authoring that the monument be covered up either by a black drop cloth, or via various decorations that could be used to temporarily transform the exterior (via modern day 50 star flags and "Black Lives Matter, Too...." jackets/tee shirts/etc.). This is a major point of contention in the community. Worse yet, the statue stands directly in front of the entrance to the Caddo Parish Courthouse, where any citizen that enters should feel that there is equal justice for all, regardless of race, religion, gender, etc. Please help us obtain relief from this affront to not just the Emancipation Proclamation, but also the fourteenth amendment of the United States Constitution. Growing up in Shreveport, Louisiana's Ledbetter Heights neighborhood, I would often walk with my mother through downtown to the local Fred's, McDonald's, or Woolworth stores. We would always stay on the sidewalk opposite the Caddo Parish Courthouse. We never walked on the same side as this particular building, and I thought at first it was because of the obvious: too many times individuals with white hoods & robes surrounded the structure.... When I talked with my mother about it later (I was 14 years old), that's when I discovered that my mother was disturbed about the statue with the flags that sat on the courthouse grounds, celebrating those that "defended the cause of 1861-1865." "The Cause" was Louisiana's foray into the Civil War. Politicians and plantation owners were concerned that legislature from the federal government was going to impact their cheapest business expense: slave laborers. So to protect their economy and way of life, Louisiana seceded from the Union and joined the Confederacy, partnering with Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and Confederate Arizona (which would now be southern New Mexico combined with southern Arizona). Erected in 1905 and unveiled to the public in 1906, the monument is dedicated to those that fought with/for the Confederacy. With that being said, the most fitting place for this monument would be in Greenwood Cemetery or Oakland Cemetery, sites of various Civil War plots specifically dedicated to those veterans. An alternative location would be within the Louisiana State University Museum in Shreveport, Louisiana, where it would be protected from the natural elements currently experienced outside. The reason this monument should be relocated from the Caddo Parish Courthouse is that no citizen should have to walk by an object that's in front of the main entrance to the courthouse, and wonder if they will get the equal justice & protection that the 14th amendment of the United States Constitution affords to us all. At a time when social justice is at the forefront of media, sports, and social discussions, an object that supports the cause of discrimination is an affront to the legal freedoms that are supposed to be afforded to any race, gender, religion, or sexual preference. The Caddo Parish Commission is fighting to have this statue removed and we are looking to help them with this in any way we can. Let's demand swift, precise action relocating the monument. Let's demand EQUAL JUSTICE FOR ALL! "Remove The Knee From Caddo Parish's Neck. It's time for the Confederate monument to go." photo by Stan Carpenter: Will James has performed street theatre selections since 2017 that advocates the removal & relocation of the Confederate Monument located at the Caddo Parish Courthouse.

Approved as to legal form: Parish Attorney ______Date 3 MINUTES OF THE WORK SESSION OF THE CADDO PARISH COMMISSON HELD ON THE 6th DAY OF July, 2020 The Caddo Parish Commission met in a Work Session, on the above date, at 3:32 p.m., via Zoom teleconference, with Mr. Chavez, presiding, and the following members in attendance constituting a quorum: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro, and Young (12). ABSENT: (0). The invocation was given by Mr. Young, and Mr. Chavez led the Commission in the Pledge of Allegiance. AGENDA ADDITIONS The Clerk shared that he had received two potential Agenda Additions. One from Commissioner Johnson, a resolution enacting a COVID 19 threat level system within Caddo Parish and otherwise providing with respect thereto. The Second from Commissioner Gage-Watts, Jackson, Johnson & Young, an emergency ordinance mandating masks or facial covering in certain establishments and public places; to provide penalties for the violation of same, and to otherwise provide with respect thereto. Mr. Young suggested that these items be heard in a Special Session and shared that while he had been a part of authoring the emergency ordinance, they received it very recently and haven’t been able to review it yet. It was moved by Mr. Johnson, Seconded by Mr. Gage-Watts, to expand the agenda to include the COVID-19 threat levels resolution. He provided some information about the threat levels and said that if we are going to require mandatory masks, this helps citizens see why and when masks are required or suggested. Mr. Chavez asked if there were any public comments for or against the agenda addition and invited anyone interested in commenting to call 318-226-6596. The Following Public Comments were received: Sharon Green: I would like to ask support for the mandatory masks. When you consider that we’re dealing with a virus that can spread exponentially, which means that, wearing the mask not only affects the person who wears the mask, but also affects the general population. So, I don’t think it’s a lot to ask to have somebody put on a mask if it protects, not just the person wearing it, but also protects everybody around them. So, I think that it would really behoove us to stop the spread of the virus if everyone was required to wear masks. What you want to do like not wear masks, it would be okay if it only affected you not wearing the mask. But you not wearing the mask also affects me. And I don’t think that my life should even come close to comparing somebody who just wants to walk free and basically not wear a mask. So, I think in order we save lives and in order that we protect citizens, and in order that we make a difference in the lives of all citizens as It relates to enhance the quality in life. I think that everybody should be required to wear a mask. Lashonda Diouf: (comment was received by phone and some parts were not audible) Favor for wearing mask for a number of reasons. First and foremost the number of covid19 cases... and that we do not have a mandate to stay at home…virus. On a person note, both of my parents contracted the virus. My dad spent 26 days on a ventilator. I saw firsthand what this virus actually does to a person’s body and to the family. And when we’re not wearing a mask you can be asymptomatic and carrying the virus and don’t even know it. Happened to my dad. Someone was asymptomatic had the virus and that’s how he was infected and in turn he infected my mom. Mandate… the public… Because we are our brother’s keeper and that’s the only way we can have some type of mandate…have a stay at home order. The virus does not move, people move. We’re the ones that are moving the virus from place to place, person to person. Dr. Ashok Rao: My name is Dr. Ashok Rao. I’m a retired physician and anesthesiologist. I am calling in to support the proposal in mandating wearing of masks in all public places. As a long time registered republican, I feel we should be united in this proposal and do what is right for all our citizens. We now know that the virus is primarily sent by air. The risk is higher in both cases. And masks would certainly be very effective in reducing the number of cases, spread and death. Thank you. Lawanda Finney: My name is Lawanda Finney with the Save Our Sons Drop the Guns organization. I am in favor of mandating the masks in Caddo Parish. Cierra Karambellas: Hi, my name is Cierra Karambellas. I work for the public and unfortunately I am seeing way too many without a mask. And I know too many personally, people who have been affected by it and I’m tired of it. And I think it’s negligible for us not to wear masks. So, I’m all for it. Just think it should be mandatory. Lashonda Hill: I am in favor of people wearing masks. I know it may be an inconvenience, but I think it will keep everybody safe in the long run. Lily Norton: Good afternoon. My name is Lily Norton. And I am in favor of mandatory mask thing because it’s more safe. Too many people are out and about not using masks and that is a safety hazard to others. Julie Cupp: Hello. My name is Julie Cupp, MD. I trained at LSU and now work here in SBC for Willis Knighton as a breast surgeon, and people need to wear masks to slow the spread of COVID-19. Slowing the spread with masking will help avoid the need for a stay at home order and increase the safety of schools opening in the fall. Let's keep each other healthy and wear our masks. Thank you. Meredith DeWitt: My name is Meredith DeWitt Wooster and I am an Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases physician who practices locally in Shreveport. I am a graduate of LSU Medical School in Shreveport (class of 2006) and did all my training here in Shreveport. I own a home here, am raising my family here, and love our community. As everyone else, I am very concerned about the effects of COVID-19 on our community. I want our community and local businesses to be able to open and for citizens to be able to spend time with friends and loves ones, but we need to do so safely. I am in support of a mandate to require universal masking in all public places. My family and I, including my small children, wear our masks anytime we are in public in order to protect our fellow citizens but are usually not offered the same protection from others. Please remember that my mask is to protect you and yours is to protect me. If everyone masks, then everyone is protected. Thank you for your consideration, Meredith Wooster, MD Jaya McSharma said: I am writing again to please ask that you pass a mask mandate or encourage the mayor to do so. For those of you who don’t know me, I am a local physician hospitalist and have been treating coronavirus since it arrived to our fair city on March 9th. I won’t bore you with the details of how novel, insidious, real, and deadly this virus is, but feel free to ask for those details should you need them. I’ve pronounced many people dead from this disease who would have otherwise lived much longer lives. We are past the window of hoping that people will comply out of compassion, understanding, or altruism. Businesses are not even enforcing their own rules. You will get push back. But nothing outweighs saving lives. There are no medical reasons not to wear a mask if you are an able bodied adult capable of understanding basic instructions. NONE. There is no medical doctor who would put their degree behind a mask exemption for a patient. COPD patients on oxygen wear masks. It literally does nothing to impede oxygen flow. Below I have attached an internal discussion among doctors regarding the notion of mask exemptions. Please do not base your information off of anything from a cable news network. It is not perfect but masks and social distancing are the only mitigation measures we have in lieu of forcing people to stay home. There are people who will protest out of a lack of understanding, political agendas, or ignorance. They will be loud. That does not mean it’s the wrong decision. I would love for the government not to have to be in charge of this mandate, but as a society we have proven we can’t do it for ourselves, and every day the number of cases in the hospital go up. We have quadrupled - QUADRUPLED - our inpatient Covid census in a WEEK. Please help. It is PAST TIME. We have already lost lives in the community we all serve that could have been prevented. That is not a burden we should write off lightly. Dr. McSharma Neera Chabra: I am a practicing pediatrician in the Shreveport area and have had significant firsthand experience with Covid in our area unfortunately. I’ve seen some young children and adolescents with Covid infection. One youngster in our community was treated for multisystem failure. With a lot of great medical care, he survived. Several of the adolescents acquired it from outside of their homes and brought it back to their families I cannot underscore enough that at this point, we need to do something simple as mandating mask wearing when in public, to help curb the spread of Covid. There is worldwide evidence now that countries and states here who did this, have curbed the spread of Covid. Btw I am a registered republican and I endorse this rule. Thank you, Neera Chhabra Sharon Tran: I received a message from fellow doctors to reach out to show my support for a mandatory mask rule for citizens entering businesses. Sharon Tran, MD April Abraham: I am in favor of mandating masks in the City of Shreveport. I am a healthcare worker and I do see the need of everyone to be mandated to wear masks for the safety of everyone. Chris Kracman: Absolutely NO to a mask/covering mandate!! Regardless of what other counties are doing such, does NOT make it right. You all should always vote "no" to tyrannical mandates! Lillian Jordan: I am in favor of mandatory masks because it is more safe, too many people are out and about not wearing masks and that is a safety hazard for others. At this time President Chavez closed the public hearing and moved on to the vote for the motion at hand. At this time, Mr. Johnson’s motion failed as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson and Young (7). NAYS Commissioners Atkins, Hopkins, Lazarus and Taliaferro (4). ABSENT (0). ABSTAIN (0) Vice President Johnson called for a Special Session on Wednesday. President Chavez suggested voting on that during Communiques and Johnson agreed. CITIZENS COMMENTS Ms. Jon Glover submitted the following statement: Can someone help me appreciate this legislation? The need to have other than the Commission inform the public, potential rural property owners, about property standards and ordinances to prospective buyers of land in the Parish, why other than the Commission? 11.III Authorize Resolution No. 52 Of 2020- A RESOLUTION URGING AND REQUESTING AREA REALTORS TO INFORM PROSPECTIVE BUYERS OF PROPERTY STANDARDS ORDINANCES, RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS, AND NEIGHBORHOOD AND HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS OBLIGATIONS AND OTHERWISE PROVIDING WITH RESPECT THERETO. Mr. Scott Hughes submitted the following statement: I have reviewed the proposed Resolution in draft form and would offer the following friendly comments and/or suggestions: 1) The proposed Ordinance references ‘REALTORS’, which are voluntary members of a professional trade association. While the term ‘REALTOR’ is often seen as synonymous with a person who sells real estate, all licensees are not REALTORS. In Louisiana there are approximately 20,000 real estate licensees as certified by the Louisiana Real Estate Commission, or LREC. Today there are only about 14,000 REALTORS which also includes licensed Appraisers, who are full REALTOR members but are regulated and licensed by the Louisiana Real Estate Appraisal Board. 2)Information about specific property shared by a real estate licensee with a prospective buyer is most often considered a legal disclosure matter. As such, matters of required disclosure are regulated by the Louisiana Real Estate Commission (LREC) and/or State and Federal laws. Established practice and most case law in disclosure is to require the current property owner to be responsible for disclosure of information relating to the property. 3) Property Management, including rental property, does not require a real estate license to manage property that is owned managed. A real estate license is usually only required to manage property for third parties. As such, a high percentage of local rental property is not represented by either a REALTOR or a licensed real estate agent. It is owned and managed by the property owner. Based on the above issues of license law, please accept the following suggestions as they relate to Resolution No. 52 of 2020: A) Consider changing the word ‘REALTOR(s)’ to ‘Property Owners’. This is where most current case law and regulation places the burden as a part of the legal disclosure process; B)Consider changing the ‘Northwest Louisiana Association of REALTORS’ to the ‘Louisiana Real Estate Commission’. This is the regulatory body in Louisiana who establishes what constitutes disclosure and who enforces Louisiana license laws. Due to industry ‘Errors & Omissions’ insurance local real estate associations, brokers and agents will simply follow those rules required by the LREC. Exceeding legal requirements creates added liability with no protections under most E&O policies. On behalf of the Northwest Louisiana Association of REALTORS we welcome conversation and appreciate your consideration of these comments as you seek to improve property standards in Caddo Parish. The Caddo Alliance for Freedom said: Res.52: Concerning Resolution 52, please consider making known to citizens that their zoning may or may not have changed over two years ago without their knowledge. We are well aware that technology works wonders but not all are privy to technology. With that said whatever endeavor used to facilitate knowledge, please consider doing so. Let it be know to the citizenry that there are now outlets to re-upzone their property with currently waived fees by the planning staff. We all represent Caddo Parish and we, the members of the Caddo Alliance for Freedom, are here to help all of us walk into those Codes and Ordinances that will ensure growth economically for and to our parish, build on our financial base and demonstrate that we are all one in unison. Again, God bless you all! Jessica Tullis, Jake Brown, Alison Taylor, Jon Glover, Chris Kracman, The Caddo Alliance for Freedom The Caddo Alliance for Freedom also submitted the following statement: Good afternoon Commissioners. We, the members of the Caddo Alliance for Freedom, believe the time is now to begin dialogue that will bring forth Codes and Ordinances for property owners in rural Caddo Parish. House Bill No. 697 empowered each of you, the Commissioners of the Caddo Parish Commission, to enact Codes and Ordinances for us, property owners in rural Caddo Parish. As Mr. Clarke, Executive Director of the Metropolitan Planning Commission has stated on numerous of occasion, this endeavor will take time and it will. Also, what we all know is this, the time is now to be ready to enact those Codes and Ordinances for property owners in rural Caddo Parish effective January 1, 2022. In our estimation, we have sufficient time to develop those Codes and Ordinances and we only ask that such begin now and not a ninth hour endeavor. In our working together, we can ensure that the Codes and Ordinances indeed address the needs of the Parish and the property owners in rural Caddo Parish alike. God bless you all! Jessica Tullis, Jake Brown, Alison Taylor, Jon Glover, Chris Kracman, The Caddo Alliance for Freedom Commissioner Gage-Watts asked for a point of clarification regarding the previous vote to expand the agenda and asked if they had voted on just the Threat level expansion and not the Mask ordinance. President Chavez confirmed that the motion they voted on was only about expanding the agenda for the Threat Level resolution. Commissioner Gage-Watts shared that she thought that commissioner John Paul Young made that. President Chavez and Mr. Young confirmed that he had not made that motion, but rather suggested that it be taken up in a special session. Mr. Chavez clarified that the discussion about the Special Meeting will take place under Communiques. VISITORS Caddo Parish Constables Ward 3—Constable Roger Harris Ward 5—Constable Ken Smith Ward 6—Constable Kevin McClure Ward 8—Constable Eric Hatfield Mr. Epperson asked that the Constables who were in attendance to introduce themselves to the Commission. Attorney Frazier explained that the constables are elected by Justice of the Peace (JOP) wards are primarily enforcement for the JOP courts. Each one is elected in his own district, which makes them their own bosses. They are paid partially by the Parish and partially by the State. The Parish Commission sets the parish portion of the salary and then it is matched by the State. The Parish is also responsible for seeing that the deputy attends necessary trainings, as outlined by the Attorney General. They also receive fees from the services that they do for the Justice courts in addition to their salaries and they have a fee schedule that is determined by state statute. In addition, some constables if they are post certified can act as general law enforcement officers with within the state. Some may be additionally deputized by the sheriff in addition to that, or the marshal or another law enforce general law enforcement agency within the state. Mr. Epperson thanked the Constables for being in attendance to today’s meeting. Answering a question from Mr. Epperson regarding the constables terms, Constable Hatfield stated that they are elected for six year terms and will be on the November 3, 2020 ballot. Mr. Epperson mentioned that some of the Constables wear uniform and logos. He wanted to know if the Constables were certified to carry weapons. Constable Hatfield confirmed that they are. Mr. Epperson then wanted to know if the Constables were all post-certified. Constable Hatfield explained that the Constable and the Sheriff are both elected officials, so they can act in the same capacity as a law enforcement officer. He also explained that it is not mandatory for a Constable to be post-certified, nor does a Sheriff. Constable Hatfield further explained that both a Constable and the Sheriff, once elected, does not have to be post-firearm certified or post-certified. He reiterated that it is not required, but most constables maintain it because of insurance purposes. Mr. Epperson wanted to know if Constable Hatfield has encountered belligerent people while performing his duties as Constable, for example, property standards. Constable Hatfield said that they have not really participated in property standards issues for about five years now because there is no enforcement. He explained that the constables can write a warrant and give a citation, but there’s “no backing” for property standards to be enforced. Mr. Epperson asked for clarification on the enforcement of property standards as it relates to the Constables. Attorney Frazier explained that when the Constables were enforcing property standards were having issues with the Justice courts actually enforcing the citations. She also pointed out that there was special legislation passed for them to write those citations. Now, it is often done by the Public Works employees, and those citations go to District Court. Mr. Epperson wanted to know if the Parish provided the Constables with cameras. Attorney Frazier stated that the Parish did. Constable Hatfield mentioned that those cameras were distributed several years ago, so the technology is not as current. He said that they mainly use their cameras on their phone to record incidents. Answering a question from Mr. Epperson regarding the need for updated body cams, Constable Hatfield feels that every law enforcement officer should wear a body cam to protect the citizens and the officer. He believes that it is a necessity. Constable Kevin McClure agreed. Constable McClure also brought up another concern. He requested that “No Littering” signs with a fine posted be installed up and down the roadways to cut down on all the trash. He feels that the signs would alleviate people from littering. He also talked about the issue with property standards. Constable McClure expressed the same sentiments as Constable Hatfield. He said that the constables have “lots of bark, with no bite”. Constable Roger Harris agreed with the necessity of body cams. He also agreed with Constable McClure with the “No Littering” signs. Mr. Epperson wanted to know if there are “No Littering” signs posted throughout the Parish. Dr. Wilson said that there are “No Dumping” signs, but he will make a note of it. Constable McClure clarified that he would like “No Littering” signs installed, but was told that he would have to go to the State. Dr. Wilson confirmed that if it is a State road, it would need to be approved by the State first. Constable McClure gave an example of a citizen going to the compactor site, but it was closed, so the citizen dumps all of their trash up and down the roadways. Mr. Jackson suggested looking at the Shreveport Environmental Court. He said that the City Court has a loaded docket, so the property standards issues get “pushed down” because they are not as severe. He recommended that a discussion be had with Mr. Terrence Green for a possible cooperative endeavor agreement (CEA) related specifically to address property standards issues. Mr. Jackson also talked about Mayor Perkins issue a mask mandate for Shreveport. He said that leaves the Shreveport Police Department (SPD) as the enforcement agency. He is concerned with this because he is not sure if SPD would be the proper enforcement authority, especially “since five year olds are being shot in the middle of the day”. He wanted to know if the Constables would be ok with helping to enforce a mask mandate, if the Commission approves one for the Parish. Mr. Jackson pointed out that he is “not looking so much for enforcement, but more for education”. He also believes that the Commission has an obligation to provide a mask first before a mask mandate is issued. Constable McClure suggested that guidelines be set so they know what type of consequences are in place. Mr. Jackson suggested to first supply the masks, then education regarding wearing the masks. Constable Harris wanted to discuss enforcement of property standards. He said that those citations would go through the JOP courts quicker if the JOPs were “given some teeth” to require the violators to clean up their properties. Mr. Jackson suggested discussing the ordinance in a Property Standards meeting. Attorney Frazier pointed out that they did go to the State Legislature to get special permission for the Justice of the Peace courts to administer a criminal fine or a jail sentence. She said “the teeth are there”. If they do not choose to impose it, then that’s the judge choosing not to impose it. There is legislation on the books that allows for it. Mr. Lazarus commented on Constable McClure’s request for “No Littering” signs. He said that the area in question is on Colquitt Road, which is a State highway. He said that the Maintenance Department with the State Highways advised him that they would need physical address of where they would like the signs to be installed, and it will be done. Mr. Taliaferro wanted to know if the Attorney General gives the Constables their “marching orders”. Constable Hatfield confirmed. Mr. Taliaferro explained that any type of enforcement that the Commission decides to implement would have to go through the AG’s Office for approval. Constable Hatfield agreed. Mr. Taliaferro wanted to know if the constables’ profession could be better explained to the public, since they are the law enforcement arm of the Parish. Constable Hatfield stated that the Commission does a good job by supporting the constables. He agreed that the general public are unsure what constables are and their duties. He also stated that the social media has afforded more opportunities on educating the public of this. Answering a question from Mr. Taliaferro regarding how the constables obtain their equipment, Constable Hatfield stated that they provide their own equipment. Mr. Taliaferro stated that it is safe to presume that one constable may be outfitted with different safety equipment as another. Constable Hatfield agreed. Mr. Taliaferro believes that it would be beneficial if all of the constables were outfitted the same. Mr. Taliaferro wanted to know if it would be more beneficial for the constables to be post-certified. Constable Hatfield agreed. He feels that every single law enforcement officer should receive as much training as possible. Answering another question from Mr. Taliaferro regarding social media, Constable Hatfield said that he does maintain a Constable Facebook where citizens can engage with him. Mr. Taliaferro wanted to know if the constables receive the necessary support from other law enforcement agencies. Constable Hatfield agreed that they receive support from the Caddo Parish Commission, Shreveport Police Department, State Police, and other agencies. Constable McClure mentioned that the Sheriff offered additional training in 2015 to the constables. He would like to take the Sheriff up on that offer, if it’s still available. He also said that they do have a great working relationship with the Parish. Attorney Frazier clarified that the constables are not the law enforcement arm of the parish; the parish does not have a law enforcement arm. The constables are elected to their own district and responsible to their electors supervised by the people that elect them and the Attorney General. She reiterated that there is no law enforcement arm of the Parish. Mr. Chavez wanted to know who would the Commission reach out to in regards to post- certifying the constables. Attorney Frazier said that as of right now, it would be up to each constable as to whether or not the constable wish to pursue post certification, they would do that at their own expense. If the Parish was to provide it, it would have to do it through a cooperative endeavor agreement with obligations on the constable and obligations on the Parish, so it is not an illegal donation. Mr. Chavez asked for the cost- measures for this type of training. Attorney Frazier pointed out that it is not a qualification that they must have to run for office. It is primarily to enforce their weapons training. It would empower them to make arrests in a wider jurisdiction. If somebody did not want to be post certified, there is no mechanism by which to make him become post-certified because it's not a qualification at the office. Constable Harris wanted to know if the deputy constables would be included in the post- certification. Mr. Chavez said that he would like to see them have training on weapons that they carry. Answering a question from Mr. Johnson regarding the number of deputies each constable has. Constable Harris said that each Constable can have one deputy. Mr. Johnson asked that the constables create a “top 3” wish list, so the Commission can review the requests of the constables. Mr. Chavez agreed and summarized that what he has heard includes body cameras, no littering signs and post certification. Constable Hatfield recapped that there was a time when Constables could have more deputies, but not any longer. Commissioner Epperson Thanked the Constables for participating in the discussion and expressed that he found it productive and informative. The next item on the agenda is a video of Mr. Ken Krefft doing a dramatic recitation of the Declaration of Independence. It was moved by Mr. Epperson to watch this at the end of the meeting, seconded by Mr. Young, and passed by acclimation. ADMINISTRATOR REPORT The Commission Clerk advised the Commission that the Certificate for Teleconference is attached to the agenda. Point of Clarification by Mr. Johnson on who requested to add the Declaration of Independence Recital on the agenda. Mr. Everson confirmed that it was a request by Mr. Chavez to accommodate a citizen’s request. Mr. Chavez acknowledged that the citizen expressed interest in sharing the recital with the Commission to which he agreed. Mr. Johnson wanted the Commission to know that for citizen’s requests a Commissioner must sponsor it. Dr. Wilson reported that the June 2020 Financial Report has been sent out by email and to inform him of any questions regarding the report. Mr. Young asked how many reimbursable claims for the Care’s act have been made. Mrs. Barnett clarified that the Parish has requested reimbursement through April 2020 under the Care’s Act and the reimbursement amount is around $80,000. The next application period is estimated at $150,000 to be reimbursed and as the application periods open then the Parish will submit claims for their expenses. Dr. Wilson asked when the mobile testing at LSU Health Sciences Center will be reimbursed. Mrs. Barnett stated that they must provide a canceled check for each expense and if it hasn’t cleared the bank then they must wait until the transaction has been completed. Then the Parish will request reimbursement when the application process when the expense cleared is available. Mr. Young also wanted to know if there was a limit for reimbursements. Mrs. Barnett stated unsure whether there is a limit by Parish or entity but there may be a limit by Parish. However, she is submitting requests for all applicable expenses. MR. Young requested whether there is someone is mediating how much is being requesting across the Parish. Mrs. Barnett responded that there is not but she is doing everything she can to submit reimbursement requests. Mr. Young states that the Parish should keep track on a total of how much is being requested for reimbursement so the Parish does not spend money assuming that the funds will be reimbursed. Mrs. Barnett confirmed that she will obtain that information and correspond with Mr. Young. At this time, Mr. Chavez moved to the next agenda item Commission Remarks: Communiques, reports and other items related to Work Session Agenda. CERTIFICATE FOR TELECONFERENCE WHEREAS, the Governor of the State of Louisiana has issued Proclamation Number 33 JBE 2020, stating that, due to the current Public Health emergency declared in the Governor’s Proclamation Number 25 JBE 2020, and citing the provisions of La.

Date: July 1, 2020 /s/Mario Chavez, President COMMISSION REMARKS: COMMUNIQUES It was moved by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mr. Young to request a Special Session to be scheduled for Wednesday, July 8, 2020 at 12:30 p.m. to include a special emergency ordinance on the masks and the COVID19 threat level resolution. Mr. Johnson commented that the Mayor of Shreveport Adrian Perkins has mandated mask wearing for Shreveport and thinks it should include the Parish of Caddo. He also believes the threat level will explain and provide support for the reason of wearing masks for the good of the community. Mr. Jackson wanted to know whether there was anything that stands out in the June 2020 Financial report. Mrs. Hayley stated that the only thing that differs is a decrease in revenue from the Riverboat Fund. Mr. Jackson stated that he anticipated some of the other budgeted expenses such as travel, mileage, and gas should balance the revenue. Dr. Wilson confirmed that the oil and gas revenue has gone up. Mr. Jackson expressed that he also would like to know the total amount in the Care’s Act amount for the Parish. He stated that the State placed $300,000,000 for the small business program and there is $14,000,000 for the Parish of Caddo altogether. However, they allowed the Sherriff’s Office and City of Shreveport has made requests for reimbursement. He also informed the Commission that unused funds are then dispersed to other Parishes. Point of Clarification by Mr. Burrell on the issue of threat level. Mr. Burrell wanted to know whether establishing a threat level of COVID19 will be recommended to Parish and City of Shreveport and to the state, as well as, how it will be administered. Mr. Chavez responded that they will go in-depth on his questions during the Special Session. Mr. Johnson commented that he proposed the ordinance for the Parish of Caddo which includes the City of Shreveport to help justify why they are at this threat level. He did not prepare it statewide although some states are preparing their own orders. Mr. Burrell also wanted to know whether the Parish will collaborate with the City of Shreveport to administer the threat level warning. Mr. Johnson stated that the Parish will administer the threat level, then ask the City Council to adopt the resolution. Mr. Hopkins wanted to know whether they are voting on something that is not on their agenda. Mrs. Frazier clarified that the Agenda Addition is an action item and was provided notice at the beginning of the meeting that action would be taken and was pushed to this portion of the Agenda by the Chair. She also informed the Commission that notice will be provided before the meeting on Wednesday so all notice requirements would be met. Mr. Chavez stated that to expand the agenda to add would be not be successful with one opposing vote and would like to give the agenda items a chance to be addressed timely. Mr. Young wanted to make sure the time of the Special Session works for everyone. Mrs. Gage-Watts wanted to reiterate that they must host a Special Meeting after hearing the citizen’s comments regarding wearing masks and that the Parish is taking too long to make a decision regarding this time sensitive matter. She expressed that the Parish of Caddo is always last in acting on things causing their actions to be reactive instead of proactive. Mr. Taliaferro agreed with Mr. Burrell that they should support the City and what they have in place to protect themselves and the Parish. Mr. Jackson stated that the order that came from the City of Shreveport should have been postponed until after speaking with other governing bodies, such as the Sherriff’s Office and the Parish. He requests that Administration speaks with the City of Shreveport to reduce confusion regarding the emergency order. Mr. Johnson’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro and Young (12). NAYS: None (0). ABSENT: (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). Mr. Chavez moved to the next agenda item, President’s Report. At this time, Mr. Chavez yielded the agenda item to the Regular Session agenda. OLD BUSINESS There was no old business to discuss today. NEW BUSINESS It was moved by Mr. Hopkins, seconded by Mr. Young that Introduction of Ordinance No. 5961 of 2020, an ordinance amending and re-enacting sections 4-61 and 4-61.1 and enacting sections 4-63, 4-64, and 4-65, all of chapter four of the code of ordinances of the parish of Caddo, pertaining to permits for the sale of alcoholic beverages and alcoholic beverage handling cards, and otherwise pertaining thereto be advanced to Thursday’s agenda. Mr. Hopkins said This will set up a committee to oversee the alcohol violations. It would be a committee of 5 assigned by the President. They’ll hear the Sheriff’s department information and hear from the businesses and make a recommendation to the full body. It has become hard in the last few years to get a quorum at alcohol hearings. It will also lower the first and second offense fines, but keep the 3rd offense fine where it currently is. It also allows this committee to meet and develop suggestions for the full body regarding updates to the laws governing alcohol. At this time, Mr. Hopkins’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Chavez, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Taliaferro, and Young (7). NAYS: Cawthorne, Epperson, Jackson & Johnson (4). ABSENT: Commissioner Gage-Watts (1). ABSTAIN: None (0). It was moved by Mr. Atkins, seconded by Mr. Lazarus, that Resolution No. 51 of 2020, a resolution to authorize the Caddo Parish administrator to request and authorize the Louisiana State Mineral And Energy Board and The Office Of Mineral Resources to accept nominations and advertise for oil, gas and mineral leases, accept bids, and award and execute oil, gas and mineral leases on certain mineral interests owned by the Parish of Caddo, and otherwise providing with respect thereto be advanced to Thursday’s agenda. Mr. Atkins clarified that there is an attempt to lease acreage under road controlled by the Parish. I’ve reviewed the lease and it has a vertical cue clause and a horizontal cue clause and seems to be well prepared, so I am supportive. Mr. Young asked if there was a map, it has been brought to his attention that there are some drilling leases on the border of cross lake and they may be controversial because they abut the main supply of drinking water for the City of Shreveport. Mr. Johnson confirmed that Cross Lake is in close proximity to the drill sites. Mr. Young said that the Bureau of Land Management had an open comment process that was somewhat interrupted by the pandemic and notice was not adequately given to the population who would be effected by this. Mr. Johnson said that any drilling in the Cross Lake watershed impacts Cross Lake and there are already wells in the Watershed, so this won’t be much different. Mr. Young expressed a concern that the proximity to Cross Lake doesn’t leave much time or distance to dilute a spill. Mr. Burrell said that he has concerns about this and hopes that it wouldn’t impact the development of I-49. Mr. Chavez asked Dr. Wilson to direct Mr. Glass to prepare a memo for the Commissioners with answers to these concerns. Mr. Atkins said that it was a good point that had been brought up, and he could be supportive of carving out roads that boarder Cross Lake, but he is also wanting to remind that we are most likely talking about natural gas reserves, dry gas reserves- which do not have the pollutant threat that an oil well would have. At this time, Mr. Atkins’ motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro (10). NAYS: Burrell and Young (2). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). It was moved by Mr. Epperson, seconded by Mrs. Gage-Watts, that Resolution No. 52 of 2020, a resolution urging and requesting area realtors to inform prospective buyers of property standards ordinances, restrictive covenants, and neighborhood and homeowners associations obligations and otherwise providing with respect thereto be advanced to Thursday’s agenda. Mr. Burrell asked if Scott Hughes recommendation had been considered. Mr. Epperson responded that he is aware of it and he is good with the resolution as written. He continued that this is very similar to a resolution adopted in 2014, but this one adds Neighborhood Associations and Homeowners Associations. I’ve gotten a lot of good response to it and homeowners say that having this information helps with their home sales. Mr. Taliaferro said that as a licensed REALTOR he appreciated Mr. Scott Hughes’ insight and his guidance. He would like to see the language that Mr. Hughes suggested be woven into the resolution and continued that it is important to be specific about who this is going to affect. He adds that using REALTOR singles out one organization within the profession. At this time, Mr. Epperson’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson and Young (10). NAYS: Lazarus, Taliaferro, (2). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). It was moved by Mr. Jackson, seconded by Mr. Hopkins, to advance Resolution 53 of 2020, a resolution of final acceptance of State Project No. H.013389.6, regarding Caddo Parish bicyclist awareness signage, Caddo Parish and otherwise providing with respect thereto to Thursday’s agenda. Mr. Jackson then made a substitute motion, seconded by Mr. Epperson, to englobo and advance Resolution 53, 54 & 55 Mr. Jackson’s motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Taliaferro, and Young (11). NAYS: Lazarus (1). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). It was moved by Mr. Atkins, seconded by Mr. Young, that the appointment of Mr. Huey Horn to the Zoning Board of Appeals, term to expire April 10, 2023 be advanced to Thursday’s agenda. Mr. Atkins said that Mr. Hon is a good business person with experience and has a desire to serve on the ZBA and has a lot of practical knowledge and would be a great addition to the ZBA. Mr. Jackson made a substitute motion, seconded by Mr. Atkins, to en globo and advance the appointment of Mr. Horn, the appointments to the North Caddo Medical Center Board, the Special Resolutions for CPAS, Muriel Burns, Charley Lester and Sophia Nicolosi. At this time, Mr. Jackson’s Motion carried, as shown by the following roll call votes: AYES: Commissioners Atkins, Burrell, Cawthorne, Chavez, Epperson, Gage-Watts, Hopkins, Jackson, Johnson, Lazarus, Taliaferro, and Young (12). NAYS: None (0). ABSENT: None (0). ABSTAIN: None (0). COMMUNIQUES/COMMITTEE REPORTS Mr. Burrell stated that in a private meeting with other Commissioners, including himself, with Sherriff Steve Prator in an attempt to encourage him to come to the Commission to provide public information. Mr. Burrell expressed concern that the Parish does not have a law enforcement entity. Mrs. Frazier explained that like the Chief of Police and the Shreveport Police Department answer to the Shreveport City Council, the Parish of Caddo does not have a law enforcement agency to answer to it. She also explained that the Sherriff is an elected official and Mr. Burrell expressed that he wants the Parish of Caddo to maintain communication with the Sherriff’s office, so they could maintain a bridge of information with law enforcement and the Parish’s legislation for the public. He stated that the relationship has been strained in the past and the Sherriff currently is not in support of the idea. Mr. Burrell strongly expressed they invite the Sherriff to their Special Session meeting. Mr. Young requested Attorney Frazier provide her legal opinion of the constitutionality of the mask laws and wanted to know whether this is best presented at the Special Session. Mr. Taliaferro acknowledged that he is in support of Attorney Frazier’s legal opinion to be spoken today or at any time. Mr. Chavez confirmed that Attorney Frazier’s legal opinion will be presented at the Special Session. Mr. Chavez confirmed that Attorney Frazier’s legal opinion will be presented at the Special Session. Mr. Jackson requested an update on issuing an RFP regarding the Confederate Statue. Dr. Wilson responded that they are waiting on the decision of the court before they could proceed. Mr. Jackson expressed concern that there was no injunction given and why they must wait. Attorney Frazier confirmed that there is no injunction and that they have started the process on what needs to be done before they could issue the RFP and having it ready once a resolution has been made. Mr. Jackson inquired about the CEPERS case and whether the Commission should ask the court to dismiss the case after five years of fighting the lawsuit. Attorney Frazier informed that they must have an Executive Session to discuss the legal strategy and there has been no updates case. Point of Clarification by Mr. Burrell to understand what the Commission is able to do during the interim of the court’s decision and what they can do if the decision is no. Mr. Jackson commented that the inquiry would have to be addressed during the Executive Session on the legal strategy. Attorney Frazier stated that she will call Mr. Burrell. Dr. Wilson advised the Commission not to get into debate at this time with respect to legal issues. Mr. Jackson concluded that he sends his condolences to Commissioner Lazarus and if legal could advise the Commission on handling group texts to all twelve Commissioners and how their phones could be used as public records. Attorney Frazier acknowledged that she will handle it. Mr. Burrell sent his condolences to Commissioner Lazarus and wanted him to know if there is anything he can do to support him during his grievance. He also mentioned Dr. Lester and other community leaders who have passed during this time. Mr. Lazarus thanked everyone in the meeting for their condolences. CITIZENS COMMENTS (LATE ARRIVALS) Jennifer Courtney submitted the following comments: Dear Commissioners and Mayor Perkins, I am writing to ask you to please pass a mask mandate in Caddo Parish and Shreveport. We are experiencing spread of the coronavirus at levels that are significantly higher than they were in March when Governor Edwards issued shelter-in-place orders. The virus has not changed. It has not gone away. No fancy new treatment has become available. No vaccine has arrived. Nothing has changed since March. In fact, it has gotten worse. We still have to do everything we can to mitigate the spread of this virus. I am a licensed midwife practitioner caring for pregnant individuals and their newborn babies. I would like to highlight the implications for pregnant people specifically. According to the CDC and ACOG, pregnant individuals are at increased risk for developing severe complications from COVID-19 including stillbirth and maternal death. Those who are healthy and giving birth in the hospital are currently having to do so with only one support person. Typically their spouse or domestic partner. They cannot have anyone else with them for support. No sisters, no mothers, no doulas, no best friends. In some hospitals around the nation, people are giving birth with NO SUPPORT PERSON AT ALL. Not even their spouse. When hospitals become overrun with COVID-19 cases, these are the measures they are having to take. For those giving birth out-of-hospital, a midwife like me has to go into their home environment in PPE and remain there for the duration of the labor; immersing the midwife in their environment for sometimes many hours. When a pregnant person is infected with COVID-19, the care team has to make sometimes drastic decisions on how to care for both of them. Babies may be delivered emergently and kept separated from their birthing parent. This means a new mother may not be able to hold her baby. It means a baby may not be able to be held and fed and cuddled by their mother. Young parents in their childbearing years are not some invisible exception to the population as a whole. This IS our population. Our new babies and their parents need to be safe, and they need their precious bonding time. It is extremely important that we, as a culture, protect them as well as our other at-risk members, essential workers, and medical care providers. Masks are something we can do. Even for those who are NOT at increased risk, the cost of treatment and hospitalization for COVID-19 is exorbitant. Who can afford weeks of ICU care even with good insurance? Who can afford to be out of work even for a couple of weeks with a mild or suspected case? If we're worried about the economy, why not do what we can to prevent people being bankrupted by illness? Masks are something we can do. Easily. There is no medical reason why anyone who is healthy enough to go out in public should be unable to wear a mask. My patients are pregnant, and it is my professional opinion that there is no medical reason why a pregnant person cannot wear a mask. As a medical professional, I have been in situations where I had to wear a medical grade respirator for up to 20 hours at a time. It is hot, it is uncomfortable, but it does not jeopardize my health. I am willing to do it to protect myself and the precious parents and babies I am caring for. There are medical professionals at the hospitals who are spending back-to-back shifts caring for COVID-19 patients wearing medical respirators for long periods of time without complications. We have GENERATIONS of medical professionals who have used masks to protect their patients who are proof that wearing a mask is not dangerous. For those who have medical or philosophical objections to wearing a mask, accommodations exist in the form of delivery and curbside services. Most businesses have already proved their willingness to make those accommodations for people who need them. Masks are a simple, effective, low-risk, low cost solution with measurable benefits. Jennifer Courtney, Louisiana Licensed Certified Professional Midwife Caroline Caperton submitted the following comments: I am a registered Republican voter in Caddo Parish. I support the measure to enforce citizens to wear masks when going into stores due to the coronavirus pandemic. Thank you.

Approved as to legal form: ______Office Of The Parish Attorney ______Date CADDO PARISH COMMISSION INTEROFFICE MEMO DATE: July 8, 2020 TO: Caddo Parish Commission FROM: Robert Glass SUBJECT: Res. 51, Oil & Gas Questions ====== Commissioners, I will respond to questions brought up at the Monday work session concerning Resolution 51. (1) Where is this acreage located? I have attached a map showing the 6 Sections where the acreage to be leased is located. (2) Is the acreage located within the Cross Lake Watershed? Yes, all 6 Sections are within the watershed. (3) Does the City have the authority to prohibit drilling within the Cross Lake Watershed? No, the City attempted to regulate drilling many years ago and was sued and lost. The exclusive authority to regulate all oil & gas drilling activity is by the State through the Dept. of Natural Resources. They issue drilling permits controlling the surface location, the proration units, where drill hole travels underground, technical drilling requirements and many other requirements. (4) Will there be a drill site on Parish leased property? No, all of the property leased by the Parish has what is called a “no drill clause” that prohibits any surface activity. (5) If the Parish doesn’t lease will that stop the well from being drilled? No, the Parish only owns 43.76 acres out of approximately 3,840 acres available to lease in the 6 Sections. If the well was drilled and the Parish did not lease the property, the Parish property would become what is called an “unleased working interest”. The Parish would not receive any bonus money for leasing and no royalty payments after the well was producing. The Parish would come into their “unleased working interest” after the well paid out which depending on the price of gas could be many years. (6) Is drilling safe for drilling through any potable water sources? Again, any precautions for environmentally safe drilling are controlled by the State, through the Dept. of Natural Resources. The main potable water source in Caddo Parish is the Carrizo Wilcox aquifer which is located approximately between 200 and 250 feet deep. The Haynesville formation is over 11,000 feet deep. When drilling the well, they put in casing, which is heavy gauge steel pipe, to isolate the well bore from outside zones and formations and seal with cement. A Haynesville example would be to put casing over 13 inches thick from 0 to around 2,100 feet deep and casing over 9 inches thick to over 10,000 feet deep.
