For the second time in two years, the Jackson Parish Police Jury will be seeking a new Secretary/Treasurer. The need to fill the position became a necessity following the Special Called Meeting held on January 10th where panel members decided to not renew the contract of Emmett Gibbs, who held the position for one year. 

The special meeting began with Jurors Todd Culpepper, Lewis Chatham, Amy Magee, Shekethia Combs, Tarneshala “Niki” Cowans, Regina Rowe and Keith Burris going into executive session to discuss the position and renewal of the contract which is on a year by year basis. Once returning from the closed session it was voted to not renew Gibbs contract.
