An ordinance designed to keep juveniles safe and off the streets at night will make another appearance at tonight’s Minden City Council meeting.

After the ordinance failed at December’s meeting by a 3-2 vote, Mayor Terry Gardner said he intended to add it to January’s agenda.

Voting against the ordinance were District A councilman Wayne Edwards, District B councilwoman Terika Williams-Walker and District C councilman Vincen Bradford.

Also on today’s agenda are the following items:

  • Elect Mayor Pro Tempore for 2022;
  • Police officer rehire;
  • Resolution declaring property as surplus and fixing the terms of sale;
  • Resolution authorizing signatory power;
  • A bid for a backyard track unit;
  • Budget/Financial report for November 2021; and,
  • Minden Police Report for November 2021.

Due to a holiday schedule, the council will meet at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, January 4, in Council Chambers, Minden City Hall. The public is invited to attend. Seating is limited due to COVID protocol.
