The region has suffered for decades from extreme poverty, population migration, and an eroding economic base. Federal programs tend to be inflexible, and local communities are often unable to meet the requirements these programs entail. We are looking at deeply rooted problems that require high-level answers.

  • In Our Most Recent Meeting of the Delta Regional Authority (Feb. 3-4), Pete
    INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: GOVERNOR RONNIE MUSGROVE FROM: ARMERITA TELL SUBJECT: DRA MEETING SUMMARY (FEBRUARY 2003) DATE: 2/6/2003 CC: BILL RENICK In our most recent meeting of the Delta Regional Authority (Feb. 3-4), Pete Johnson devoted the majority of time to a discussion of programs, policy, and administrative efforts that he would like to see centralized and operated by the Authority. Before that, however, Hayes Dent brought up several of Mississippi’s still pending proposals. Project Applications : There was a brief discussion of grants that were still “unapproved” and a sheet was passed out detailing that amount of unexpended funds for each state (attached). Mississippi has the most unexpended funds by over $1 million . One Mississippi project ( Delta State Business Retention Center , $255,000 DRA) was recommended by Hayes “and the DRA staff” for approval and was approved by the Authority by voice vote (no opposition). There were no apparent changes to the application and the DRA amount was the same as that originally suggested by us in August of last year. Hayes also indicated that the Bolivar County CAA proposal and the Town of Anguilla proposal were now fundable. There was no vote taken but Hayes indicated that approval ballots would be mailed to Alternates very soon. This type of action (especially when you consider the DRA’s own information regarding unallocated funds) only serves to support the notion that Pete and Hayes had unsupportable reasons for delaying and threatening these projects with disapproval. The Town of Moorhead , Quitman County Rural Transportation , and Seminary Public Library projects were not brought up for discussion by Hayes at this meeting.

  • Federal Regional Commissions and Authorities: Structural Features and Function
    Federal Regional Commissions and Authorities: Structural Features and Function Updated April 29, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45997 SUMMARY R45997 Federal Regional Commissions and Authorities: April 29, 2021 Structural Features and Function Michael H. Cecire This report describes the structure, activities, legislative history, and funding history of seven Analyst in federal regional commissions and authorities: the Appalachian Regional Commission; the Delta Intergovernmental Regional Authority; the Denali Commission; the Northern Border Regional Commission; the Relations and Economic Northern Great Plains Regional Authority; the Southeast Crescent Regional Commission; and the Development Policy Southwest Border Regional Commission. All seven regional commissions and authorities are broadly modeled after the Appalachian Regional Commission structure, which is composed of a federal co-chair appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate, and the member state governors, of which one is appointed the state co - chair. This structure is broadly replicated in the other commissions and authorities, albeit with notable variations and exceptions to local contexts. In addition, the service areas for all of the federal regional commissions and authorities are defined in statute and thus can only be amended or modified through congressional action. While the service areas for the federal regional commissions and authorities have shifted over time, those jurisdictions have not changed radically in their respective service lives. Of the seven federal regional commissions and authorities, four could be considered active: the Appalachian Regional Commission; the Delta Regional Authority; the Denali Commission; and the Northern Border Regional Commission. The four active regional commissions and authority received $15 million to $180 million in appropriations in FY2021 for their various activities.

Tallulah is the parish seat of Madison Parish, a rural agricultural community rich in history and cultural heritage. The area that is now Madison Parish has historically flown five national flags, although in times prior, native tribes also claimed this land. It is believed the Spanish explorer, Fernando DeSoto, first discovered the wooded shores of the Mississippi River at present day Madison Parish. However, the first flag that flew over these grounds was that of the French fleur-de- Figure 1 – North Cedar Street, Tallulah, outside the Louisiana State University Agricultural Center offices where the workshop lis.

The Tri- color was followed by the Stars and Stripes, which was replaced for a time by the Stars and Bars of the Southern Confederacy; and again, came the Stars and Stripes as the emblem of a reunited people.1 Named after President James Madison, the parish also has deep historical ties to the Civil War.
