Ascension Parish Drama and Councilman Joel Robert.

quote:
In the voicemail, Councilman Joel Robert voices his displeasure with the council secretary because his letter about a controversial neighborhood development that had been before the council Monday night was not read in his absence.
"No. 1, you need f------ return my f------ phone calls. No. 2, I gave you a f------ letter to read and it did not get read," the message says. "I'm not happy about that."
quote:
Robert, a first-term councilman who represents the Pelican Point area and part of Donaldsonville, opposed the Antebellum project proposed off La. 73 in Prairieville. The council failed to overturn the Planning Commission's denial of the project, without Robert's vote.
Robert said he has already apologized to McKey and her husband by text and letter on Friday and said the comments were out of character for him.
"It was anger that was misplaced. Cinnamon is a phenomenal employee of this parish," Robert said.
quote:
Robert's short, tart voice message Thursday night also prompted a subsequent exchange between the councilman and the secretary's husband, in which Robert claims he was verbally threatened, the councilman and others said.
quote:
The proposed motion accuses Robert of violating "the very rules which the Ascension Parish Council has mandated its employees to follow" and publicly censures him for "said action in treating parish employees in a unprofessional and discourteous manner."
Cinnamon McKey has been council secretary for more than eight years. She declined to comment Friday, but verified the message was Robert's and that it had come from his cell number.
quote:
WBRZ-TV first published the audio recording and Casso's censure plans on Friday afternoon. The Advocate has independently obtained a copy but made an editorial decision not to publish it online.
Casso added that the parish administration has also ended Robert's access to the council secretary's office inside the government complex in Gonzales. Access is controlled through electronic passes
Don't know much about Robert but Casso is bought and paid for and has been lining her pockets for years.

The developer class is going after a rookie councilman for publicly opposing them. They’ll try picking off councilmen one by one until they have the majority again.

Casso will make sure this passes as she gets a kick back for every subdivision in the Parish

A little contradictory, don’t you think?

Sounds like the secretary dropped the ball and didn’t handle what she was instructed to. Sounds about like every parish attorney, secretary I have ever had to deal with. Never in a hurry to do their job or return a phone call. Sounds to me he handled it the way it needed to be. Now move on, is this really news

This isn’t the parish attorney. The AP attorney is a good dude. I’m currently involved in a public bid dispute in AP and he’s been nothing but helpful. The AP council on the other hand...

Why was he absent?

I have no personal knowledge of the AP parish attorney and wasn’t speaking about hime directly. Just making a general statement that fits for parish attorneys/ secretaries more often than not

I'm not a fan of the old members of the board

Is her husband still slinging concrete? Isn't exactly a kickback, but I see the connection.

Possibly, idk however the issue I have is with the Burnside and 42 construction where she was getting kick backs to approve the construction despite people's complaints of flooding later on.

Joel Robert is anything but intimidating. Says more about the puss on the other line.

Nah. That’s more NP’s and PA’s that get that treatment.
