A supplement to the current nui-sance abatement ordinance recentlyapproved by the board of aldermenwill clear the way for easier enforce-
ment of laws.The ordinance will provide for
problems with junk yards, tall grass,abandon vehicles and abandonedbuildings to be addressed in a timelymanner.
The board approved the change tothe current ordinance at the requestof the Jeanerette HousingCommission.
“This is going to make it easier forthe city to enforce the laws for acleaner community,” said Alderman-at-large Kurt Myers who also serves
as chairman of the commission.Residents will have 15 days to com-
ply or go before the board for anappeal for additional time.
Myers said the Jeanerette HousingCommission was formed to expandthe housing inventory in the city ofJeanerette, but before that can bedone there are problems that need tobe addressed to create a cleaner cityto entice new residents into the com-munity.
Currently the city has a mecha-nism in place to address the prob-
lems, but it is not structured in onesection to make it easy for enforce-ment, according to commission mem-bers.
The commission was originallyformed at the request of MayorArthur Verret to work towardsincreasing the available housing nthe city.
“I believe the whole board and thepeople of the community are glad thenew ordinance was put into place.Everyone wants to have a clean com-munity,” said Myers.

Editor:I was reading the Jeanerette
Enterprise and read a storywhere the board of aldermen,at the Monday, April 9 meetingwent into executive session(closed) about a complaintlodged against a Jeanerettepolice officer and no actionwas taken.
The reason no action wastaken was because the matterwas handed over for investiga-tion to the state police Mondaylong before the meeting.
I learned of this Mondaymorning. Even though I wastold about it during the meet-ing, it did not come as a sur-prise.
As small as our communityis we are not capable of han-dling our own affairs. Thismatter left from the JeanerettePolice Department lookinginto the matter, than the sher-iff ’s department and now on tothe state police.
This officer is still suppose tobe on administrative duty. Whyis he patrolling the streets?
If so, it just goes to show thecitizens of Jeanerette we haveno leadership from the top tothe bottom.
For the young men andwomen of Jeanerette, be safe.Donna M. EllisJeanerette

SPECIAL TO THE ENTERPRISE
Former Jeanerette mayor
James “T.K.” Alexander, con-
victed last year of public
bribery, was disqualified from
running for re-election by 16th
Judicial District Court Judge
Keith R.J. Comeaux Monday.
Alexander, 58, qualified for
the April 5 mayoral election on
Feb. 14. His candidacy was con-
tested one week later by
Jeanerette resident Andre
Rosamond in 16th Judicial
District Court one week later.
Judge Comeaux ruled that,
according to state law, because
Alexander is a felon “actually
under an order of imprison-
ment,” he is ineligible to run
for office.
Alexander was sentenced to
three years in prison after his
felony conviction with two
years suspended. He is cur-
rently free on a $5,000 bond on
supervised probation.
Alexander’s attorney, P.
Charles Calahan, said after the
ruling that he plans to appeal
the decision. The appeal must
be received in 16th Judicial
District Court within 24 hours
of the ruling, which was
turned in at 1:55 p.m. Monday.
The appeal will go from
there to the Third Circuit
Court of Appeals.
Calahan argued that the law
cited is ambiguous and was
intended to keep convicts from
running for office from jail.
Because Alexander is free with
a pending appeal, he said,
Bowie seeking
at-large seatIssac J. Bowie has
announced his candidacy for
the alderman-at-large position
for the city of Jeanerette.
Bowie pledged to assist other
city officials in advocating pos-
itive changes for the city.
“I made the decision to work
diligently will all members of
our community to successfully
make Jeanerette a thriving
city with many advantages
afforded to a city of our size,”
said Bowie.
“When you look around and
see other communities pro-
gressing and realize that we
are stagnated, I believe that
you are just as concerned as I
am about our progress. I have
learned that the best way to
Kurt Myers has announced
candidacy for the alderman-at-
large seat in the April 5 city
election.
As a lifelong citizen of
Jeanerette, Myers said he
wants to have the opportunity
to work for the betterment of
Jeanerette.
“My sole interest in running
for this office is to help the gov-
ernment of our city in making
the right and necessary deci-
sions for maintaining our
facilities and for the welfare of
our citizens,” said Myers.
Myers, a 1972 graduate of
Jeanerette Senior High School,
is a member of the St. John the
Evangelist Catholic Church
and St. John the Evangelist
Church Choir. He is past vice-
president and member of the
Iberia Community Band.
Myers, was active in coaching
Little League, Pony League
and Colt League for 14 years.
Myers, 48, is the son of
Curtis and Mazie Myers. He is
married to the former Anna
Marie LeJeune and they are
the parents of three sons,
James Michael, 24, Ben
Nicholas, 21 and Robert
Anthony, 17.
Myers says he has the time
to devote to city government to
help address the needs of the
community.

the tenth annual Krewe of Ezana Parade.
Mardi Gras revelers lined Main Street, Pellerin and
Martin Luther King Drive in search of the best beads
and favors. “Throw me Something Mister” was a
familiar cry all along the route as revelers scurried
for Mardi Gras cups, colorful beads, candy, toys and

handwritten and in otherinstances the remains of thedeceased have been relocatedto other cemeteries.
In many cases, Schexnaydersaid the headstones are brokenand deteriorated and it is noteasy to identify the deceased,while others have no identifi-cation at all.
“This is a way that thegenealogy group can be ofhelp to supplement and updatechurch records,” she said.
In order to complete the proj-ect quicker, Schexnayder saidthe group is seeking volun-teers who are willing to volun-teer their time for a couple ofhours a week over the next sixto eight weeks.
The group will meet at St.John Evangelist Church at 9a.m. Tuesday and will contin-
ue meeting every Tuesday at 9a.m. until the task is complet-ed.
“A volunteer doesn’t’ have tocommit to every week, it canbe only a few hours,” saidSchexnayder.
Shirley Broussard, a mem-ber of the group said there arewell over 3,000 tombs that needto be verified with records.
Records show the cemeteryhas a history dating back toJune, 1879 when the first bur-ial plot was purchased for six-year-old Alice Harris.
The group eventually hopesto see each tomb identifiedwith a visual marking. Forthose who do not have anengraving or headstone,Schexnayder said an engravedmetal plate can be purchasedfor $10. Anyone wanting moreinformation on the programcan call Schexnyader at 365-
7667.Schexnayder said the group
is just an informal associationthat has joined together to per-form a service that is muchneeded.
“We need to get more of thelocals in Jeanerette involved,”she said.
The genealogy enthusiastshave already competed a simi-lar project in St. NicholasCatholic Church Cemetery inPatoutville and St. PetersCatholic Church Cemetery inNew Iberia.
After the records are verifiedat St. John EvangelistCemetery, the group will moveon to a Catholic cemetery inCharenton to complete a simi-lar project.
