A candidate for District 10, Dennis Cullen previously represented the district (from 2008-11). His last meeting was December 19, 2011, and included this tactless display. Disappointed to have been voted out, angry that a Planning Commission refused to take marching orders from a pro-development governing authority... Regrettable and a few old-timers believe, disqualifying.
Shadows at Manchac's developer (Ross Berthelot of Berthelot Holdings, LLC) promising the Planning Commission that the acreage will drain better after his project done (April 11, 2012)
Lawler explains why Bill Roux's old maintenance plan didn't work, because politicos pulled crews off of jobs to take care of friends. So, how is hiring the same guy to do the same (or different) plan going to fix that regrettable problem?
Lawler may want to reconsider the stones he's throwing.
Here's one councilman who gets it. Michael Mason questions the need for a liaison when a $135-210,000 Drainage Director is going to be hired.
Another classic. Self-congratulatory lovefest between EA Drainage and President Cointment interrupted by unsatisfied citizens, Corey Orgeron melts down. Councilman Joel Robert was right about this "dog-and-pony show"
Yesterday BR Proud reported that "In June, Aaron Lawler, John Cagnnolatti, Teri Casso, Dempsey Lambert, Teri Casso, and Corey Oregon (who wrote the resolution) voted to void a contract between the East Ascension Drainage District #1 and the Ascension Parish President." This comes after Orgeron has denied authorship publicly.
Listen to Council-Elect Corey Orgeron from November 2019. How did this guy fool enough voters in District 4 to win election?
Councilman Aaron Lawler: "If you can’t answer the question I’m going to assume the worst!"
Aaron Lawler is just so misunderstood...
All Aaron Lawler is really trying to do, you see, is find a better way with...the EA Drainage vote on June 28 was ONLY to give him and his cronies authority to relieve President Cointment of his drainage duties when all they really want is a compromise, you see...oh, NEVERMIND
Councilman John Cagnolatti's 2 minutes
Considering the reception he got at Monday's EA Drainage meeting, maybe Councilman Cagnolatti would be better off recommitting to his 5-year vow of silence.
Why did Dempsey Lambert promise answers for Monday's meeting when he had no intention of providing them? Because Aaron Lawler is whispering in his ear.
Hear Bill Roux arguing against removing the Parish President from heading up EA Drainage operations the only other time it was tried in Ascension.
Donaldsonville Councilman Alvin "Coach" Thomas' performance on Thursday can be best be described by one word: PERSURD!
