From the meeting
At its August 11, 2026 meeting, the council supported preparing and submitting a Louisiana Community Development Block Grant (LCDBG) application for demolition and clearance of blighted properties throughout Pointe Coupee Parish. The parish president was authorized to sign grant documents, and the parish said it would cover legal fees and administrative consulting if the grant is funded. Forte and Tablada, Inc.
is named in the grant administration path, with fees not to exceed $50,000. This is an open funding and administration trigger tied to future blight removal work.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
