Real Estate, News, and Information, for St Tammany Parish LA
I was able to take this video in July 2011, (wow the heat…) with our new Mayor of Covington; Mike Cooper. His "Coffee with the Mayor," is an excellent way for residents to have an informal conversation with him in a very relaxed setting, (munching on scones and drinking coffee). 🙂 In this particular video, Pam lays down the ground rules before introducing Mayor Cooper. More to come…
Thank You

Pulled together, by Tammany Together! 5 St Tammany Mayors were assembled and I happened to bring a video camera. One of the five Mayors to attend the meeting is Peter Gitz of Madisonville. I wish I would have been able to edit more video of Mayor Gitz, however his voice was so low it was futile. Even in this video, through which Mayor Fitzmorris of Abita Springs and Mayor Gitz discuss the number of gas customers in each municipality, it is a little hard to understand him. Sorry Mayor Gitz…
Well… I have enjoyed the beautiful riverfront in Madisonville many times and good Lord willing, may do so again. Many times!! Laissez les bon temps roulez!
Thank You

4/18/11, The Tammany Together Association asked Mayors from across St Tammany to attend an informal presentation and question and answer session. In this video, Mayor Fitzmorris of Abita is asked about how his city feels about incorporating police through the STPSO and fire through the Parish fire districts, and hence the effects on the budget? Hope you enjoy.

This is part 3 of the 3 part video, which I had to break up due to its length… In this series, one conscientious citizen asks the question; "With all of the growth in the Parish happening in the un-incorporated areas; how is this affecting growth in the incorporated areas?" And in this particular segment Mayor Villere of Mandeville and Mayor Watkins of Covington have the microphone. Hope you enjoy.

On 4_18_11 The Tammany Together Association invited 5 St Tammany Mayors to an informal sitdown for their membership and the general public. In this video, Mayor Drennan of Slidell, speaks at length on the City of Slidell; including budget concerns and possible solutions. As with much of the country, Slidell is feeling the pinch, especially with West St Tammany building a mall, and therefore East St Tammany losing the sales tax revenue. Hope you enjoy.

On April 18th, 2011, The Tammany Together Association asked 5 St Tammany Mayors to attend an informal question and answer session. In this particular video all 5 Mayors are taped answering the question… “What aspect of their job do they feel is the most misunderstood by the public?”, With the caveat; “How do the Mayors get along with their city councilman?”
I was able to attend and video tape this Meeting of the Mayors, and was thoroughly impressed with their forward thinking, dynamic ideas. Hope you enjoy.
Thank You
