Acadia Parish reports January finances: $50,047 surplus; cash and investments noted

At the Feb. 10 meeting the Acadia Parish Police Jury reviewed monthly financial statements presented by "Miss Shawn," identified by the chair as the parish CPA. She reported cash of $25,300,000.0 and investments of $33,900,000.0 as of Jan. 31, 2026. The balance sheet figures presented included total assets of $13,900,000.0, current liabilities of $1,900,000.0 and a fund balance of $11,900,000.0.

For January the CPA reported revenues of $401,000 and expenses of $351,000, yielding a surplus of $50,047. "So right now, we're in the black, $50,047," she said. Jurors asked no substantive clarifying questions and moved to accept the financial statement; the motion carried.

Note: Some balance-sheet line items as read in the meeting appear inconsistent (for example, cash and investments totals versus reported total assets) and should be confirmed with the parish finance office and the formal financial statements for audit and public record.
