Summary
Mayor-President Sid Edwards is sharply criticizing the parish attorney’s move to file a lawsuit against St. George without his approval, calling it a reckless legal gamble that killed any chance of negotiation and dragged the city-parish into another costly battle. The lawsuit, brought by LRK LLC, challenges St. George’s zoning legality, arguing the town was never officially incorporated by court order — a key point in their case. Edwards insists the parish attorney’s office is ignoring past lessons and sabotaging progress, but he still holds out hope for a cooperative solution, urging all sides to set aside politics and work together to solve Baton Rouge’s real problems.
