Summary
East Feliciana Parish is poised for a major political shift as residents push to replace the century-old police jury system with a home rule charter, inspired by neighboring parishes that’ve seen budget growth and infrastructure improvements. Led by East Feliciana Future Now, the movement is gaining momentum through community meetings and strong local support, envisioning a new government with an executive and legislative council. But the path ahead is tough: the current jury must agree to cede power—or citizens must gather 1,200 signatures in six months to force a vote. With more meetings and outreach planned, this grassroots effort could reshape how the parish is governed. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
