issues of fact involved and argument on all issues of law and policy involved

time as delineated by the council. Failure to complete any such condition for
deferment on time and in full shall result in the immediate suspension of the

permit-holder who, due to the incompletion and/or untimely completion of the
respective conditions for deferment, serves the entirety of any such suspension
shall not thereafter be required to complete the corresponding conditions of the
deferment.
(10) Assessment of Costs of Hearings. In hearings of the alcoholic beverage
permit review committee which finally result in withholding the issuance of
a license, suspending or revoking a permit/certificate to dispense, or other
penalties, the committee may recommend the assessment of any costs of the
hearing to the applicant, permittee, or holder of certificate to dispense, as the case
may be. Such recommended assessments shall not be imposed unless approved
by the council. Funds received by the parish from the assessments of the costs of
the hearings may be used to defray the costs to the parish for such hearings.
(11) Council Action. If the hearing is conducted by the committee, the council
shall not be required to conduct another hearing during its deliberation, unless a
majority of the council votes to do so; however, nothing herein shall prohibit a
permit-holder from submitting written objections regarding any alleged errors in
the record prior to the council considering the permit revocation or suspension
and/or the imposition of other penalties for the violation of any of the provisions
of this chapter. However, no permit shall be suspended or revoked, nor shall any
renewal application be denied, nor shall any other penalty as enumerated in this
chapter be imposed except by a majority vote of the parish council. No rehearing
shall be granted with regard to any permit or permit-holder/applicant for which
the parish council has adopted a resolution imposing suspension, revocation, and/
or other penalties.
(12) Effect of Revocation, Suspension. When an alcoholic beverage permit is
revoked or renewal is denied for any legal cause, by any lawful authority, no

of one (1) year and one (1) day after the date of the revocation, except under
director declared emergency by the director of inspection and code enforcement.
When a permit has been suspended by the parish council or their lawful

fourteen (14) days beginning from the last day of the suspension. A suspension
shall be executed in and apply to the licensed premises in which or in the vicinity
of which the violation occurred, regardless of whether such establishment has

a permit prior to the term of the suspension.
(13) Signage Required. During the entire period of any permit suspension or
revocation as provided for herein, the permittee or former permittee shall display
on the exterior of the front door of the licensed premises or formerly licensed
premises a sign prepared by the Jefferson Parish Sheriffs Office indicating that
the permit for said premises has been suspended or revoked, and giving the
beginning and ending dates of such suspension and revocation and the reason(s)
for the suspension or revocation.
(14) Removal of Inventory. During the entire period of any permit suspension
or revocation as provided for herein, the permittee or former permittee shall
not retain, keep, or display any alcoholic beverages on the licensed or formerly
licensed premises which are subject to the suspension or revocation. All such
beverages shall be removed from the premises and shall not be restocked or
returned to the premises until the end of the period of suspension or until a new
permit is issued after revocation of the former permit. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this subsection, however, the Sheriff may within his discretion
allow a permit-holder whose permit has been suspended to retain the alcoholic
beverages on the licensed premises during the period of suspension provided
that the permit-holder complies with whatever alternative measures the Sheriff
may require to ensure that alcoholic beverages are not dispensed on the licensed
premises during the period in which the permit is suspended.

Funds paid to the parish from the imposition of fines under the provisions of

the Captain of the Ship Doctrine and the Doctrine of Respondeat Superior

Grand Isle Shipyard Engineer Oneil Malbrough was recognized and reported to
the Council the situation that exists with the damages to the Hurricane Protection
Levee on the Western end of the Island. Meetings between himself the Mayor
and Members of the State CPRA (Coastal Protection Restoration Authority)
has resulted in acquiring funding to make repairs to the Levee. Mr. Malbrough
explained the work that will take place and stressed that the Town has to act
immediately in order to acquire the available funding, thus the necessity of
the emergency meeting. After a short discussion the following Ordinance and
Resolution were adopted:
ORDINANCE NO. 942

and the Town of Grand Isle was told to stand down by the CPRA who
informed the Town that they would take the lead in making the repairs but after
receiving a May 26, 2016 letter that the repair would be the responsibility of the
Town, immediate action was necessary with the threat of hurricane season and
irreparable and immediate harm threatening the residents and property located in
the Town of Grand Isle.
WHEREAS, the repairs are both necessary and critical to the survival of the
residents of the Town of Grand Isle and must begin immediately as hurricane
season is upon us and Grand Isle is in a very vulnerable situation as has been
evidenced by past history of hurricanes and tidal events.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY the Town Council of the Town of
