This was a Legislative Committee meeting focused on a single agenda item, ordinance 2025-0359, which would update parish fees for copying/reproducing public records (paper copies, emails, electronic documents, and bid-related documents). No vote was taken on the ordinance itself; instead, council members discussed the proposed fee structure, raised disagreements about pricing, and directed staff/administration to keep working on it before it comes back for a vote.
