The

berm
(formerly

to as

project
that
would
have
involved
building
a berm
beside

trail on
the
south
side of
Bienville,
was
voted on
at
tonight’s
Town
council
meeting.
After
discussion
(during
which no
council
member
seemed
to
support
the idea
as it
was),
the
following
motion
was
proposed
and
passed
by
unanimous
vote as
the
Towns
response
to
FEMA/EMA
“We do
not
accept
the berm
project
as
proposed
but are
interested
in other
options.”
The
council
felt it
was
important
to
respond
to the
proposal
professionally
and to
put
together
a
response
that
will
share
the
concerns
the
community
and Town
had
about
the
project
– namely
issues
of
access,
use,
cost of
installation
and
maintenance
of
service
road,
public
safety,
utilities,
insurance,
etc and
to have
that
response
be
documented
so that
in the
future
they are
able to
show the
government
officials
they
deal
with
while
the idea
was
seriously
considered
and
found
unacceptable
due to
very

problems
with the
plan;

is open
to ideas

The
proposed
west end
berm
(formerly
referred
to as
the
levee)
project
that
would
have
involved
building
a berm
beside
the bike
trail on
the
south
side of
Bienville,
was
voted on
at
tonight’s
Town
council
meeting.
After
discussion
(during
which no
council
member
seemed
to
support
the idea
as it
was),
the
following
motion
was
proposed
and
passed
by
unanimous
vote as
the
Towns
response
to
FEMA/EMA
“We do
not
accept
the berm
project
as
proposed
but are
interested
in other
options.”
The
council
felt it
was
important
to
respond
to the
proposal
professionally
and to
put
together
a
response
that
will
share
the
concerns
the
community
and Town
had
about
the
project
– namely
issues
of
access,
use,
cost of
installation
and
maintenance
of
service
road,
public
safety,
utilities,
insurance,
etc and
to have
that
response
be
documented
so that
in the
future
they are
able to
show the
government
officials
they
deal
with
while
the idea
was
seriously
considered
and
found
unacceptable
due to
very
legitimate
problems
with the
plan;
the Town
is open
to ideas
and
suggestions.
