Parish council adopts resolutions to begin condemnation proceedings for four properties

The Tangipahoa Parish Council voted to adopt four resolutions directing the parish to move forward with condemnation proceedings for four properties, the council recorded during its meeting.

The measures — TP Resolution R2604 (15122 Waitsboro Road, Ponchatoula; Assessment No. 1988204), TP Resolution R2605 (17283 East Park Avenue, Hammond; Assessment No. 2134004), TP Resolution R2606 (property listed as 26105 in District 3), and TP Resolution R2607 (44331 Milton Road; Assessment No. 2266407 in District 2) — were presented by staff and each was adopted after a motion and roll call vote. Council members recorded affirmative responses on each roll call.

Parish President Miller had reviewed the recommendations with the council beforehand, and staff said notices and press releases would follow. The actions authorize the parish to proceed with the condemnation process; no additional procedural details or timelines for individual properties were provided during the meeting.

The votes were routine and recorded by roll call; council members who participated voted in favor of moving each case forward. The resolutions do not, in themselves, effect dispossession — they initiate the legal steps needed to pursue condemnation under parish procedures.
