The board approved the renewal of the self-funded workers' compensation plan and accepted a slightly reduced premium for excess workers' compensation insurance at $99,658. They also recommended renewing a 10-year lease for a campsite property with a $400 annual fee, noting a significant $75,000 investment in property improvements by the lessee. Additionally, the board discussed the renewal of the School Resource Officer (SRO) contract with a noted increase in costs and requested staff to investigate how other parishes fund their SRO officers.
