Walker budget plans upgrades

BY HEIDI R. KINCHEN

hkinchen@theadvocate.com Big improvements are coming Walker’s way, according to the proposed 2016 budget for the city.

Nearly half of the city’s $10.6 million general fund budget for next year represents income and expenses related to road rehab and extension work at the Livingston Parish Industrial Park on the east end of the city.

Those improvements, projected to cost about $5 million,

are being funded through a combination of grants and contributions from the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, state and parish economic development groups, Livingston Parish government and the city of Walker.

Other capital improvement projects slated for 2016 include construction of a $1.2 million water well to supply the new tower near Our Lady of the Lake Hospital south of Interstate 12, continuation of a $684,000 sidewalk project,

about $425,000 in gas service extensions along Juban Road and Buddy Ellis Road, $368,000 in water and sewer upgrades at the industrial park and a $12,000 extension of the new fishing pier at Sidney Hutchinson Park.

The budget will go before the City Council for discussion and a vote on Dec. 14.

Excluding pass-through funding like grants, the general fund would collect about $4.4 million in local revenue for 2016, including $2.5 million in

sales taxes and $500,000 combined in property, franchise and alcoholic beverage taxes.

Permit and license fees, fines and charges for services make up the rest.

On the expenditures side, the general fund budget proposes $2.4 million for the police department, $1.7 million for general government and administration, $1.3 million for the streets department, $270,000 for parks and recreation and $225,000 for animal control services.

General fund expenditures are projected to outpace revenue by about $1.4 million, a difference largely negated by a $1 million transfer from the city’s enterprise fund, which accounts for the city’s utility and garbage services.

“The general fund always runs a little in the negative, and we transfer from our enterprise fund to cut it,” Mayor Rick Ramsey said. “That has been the case for the past, at äSee WALKER, page 4G

Denham Springs launches season with lights, festivities

Erin Cowser received copious amounts of LSU-themed children’s books at her daughter’s baby showers, but none featuring the Southeastern Lions.

Cowser obtained her master’s degree in organizational communication at Southeastern Louisiana University and works as the director of Pubic and Governmental Affairs for the university.

The pride she feels toward the school as a former student and a current professional on campus motivated her to the write the first children’s book about Southeastern.

“It killed me that there was nothing for Southeastern. It’s the third-largest university in the state of Louisiana, but if you ask even some of our current students how large our school is, they’re going to tell you it’s a small school,” she said. “They feel like it’s still small because they get personal attention and everybody knows everybody.”

Southeastern has 15,000 students enrolled and more than 65,000 alumni.

In 2013 Southeastern studentathletes brought home five Southland Conference Championships, including the Lions football team.

The book features Roomie, Southeastern’s lion mascot, as he gives readers a campus tour of everything from the shade of Friendship Oak to the seats of Strawberry Stadium.

Cowser’s 5-year-old daughter, Eliza Kate, is also featured in the book.

“It features all the different landmarks, and includes some of the traditions that are unique to Southeastern,” Cowser said.

LSU, SLU join organization for Live Oak AP class dresses disabled children fundraiser up as historical figures Advocate staff report

Disable the Label, a fundraiser for the nonprofit organization Launch, was held Oct. 31 at Denham Springs High School.

Launch was started by Dr. Chantelle Vernado to provide services for children with disabilities in Livingston Parish, including speech, occupational and physical therapy and religious education for prekindergarten.

Different vendors sponsored the fundraiser and set up informational booths for families.

The event included a 5K run and 1-mile family walk, games, face painting, jump houses, a bean bag toss and prizes.

Students from the Communication Disorder departments at LSU and Southeastern Louisiana University volunteered their time during the fundraiser.

The Advanced Placement world history class at Live Oak High School in Watson stepped back in time on Oct. 28.

Class members dressed as historical figures from anywhere other than the West or the United States. The students also had to present as if they were the historical figure giving an autobiography.

Girls’ costumes ranged

from Queen Elizabeth to Cleopatra to Catherine the Great, while boys’ costumes ranged from Octavius to William Wallace to Jesus of Nazareth.

Teacher Gary Mitchell dressed up as Jesus of Nazareth and gave a presentation.

The project helped students place themselves in a variety of eras and locations and allowed them to experience and understand a variety of cultures, a news release said.

BASF recently awarded a scholarship in the amount of $2,500 to D’Antonio Daigre, an engineering student at Southern University in Baton Rouge.

“BASF’s Daigre Team Chemistry Scholarship Program encourages students to pursue STEM-related degrees and to support careers in our industry,” said Tom Yura, senior vice president and manager of the BASF site in Geismar.

The scholarships are awarded to students who maintain excellent grade-point aver-

The enterprise fund is projected to collect $6.2 million from gas service, $1.5 million from water, $1 million from sewer and $362,000 for garbage service in 2016. Both the sewer and garbage services are expected to operate at a loss for the year, but the surpluses in gas and water would be more than sufficient to cover those losses.

Even after accounting for depreciation and the transfer to the general fund, the enterprise fund is projected to record a surplus of $1.4 million next year, bringing the fund’s reserve balance up to $17.2 million.

Ramsey said the city’s overall net worth has gone up drastically in recent years, in part because of the growing bal-

ages and are active in campus and community organizations, a news release said.

Daigre, a sophomore mechanical engineering major from Denham Springs, graduated from Walker High School with honors in 2014. He is an Honors College Scholar and a member of the Louisiana Collegiate Honors Council, the National Collegiate Honors Council, the Southern Regional Honors Council and the National Association of African American Honors Programs.

Daigre is active in the Student Government Association and the Men’s Federation, volunteers with the Louisiana Youth Sports Network and the Baton Rouge Animal Shelter and is a member of the Southern football team.

ance in the reserve fund.

Balances in the general fund and special revenue fund would drop from a combined $3.2 million in 2015 to $2.9 million in 2016.

But with a projected $5 million gain in capital assets and a $350,000 decrease in longterm liabilities in 2016, the city looks to increase its overall net position from $19.8 million to $26.2 million.

“Our financial picture is very positive,” Ramsey said.

“We’ve been able to do a lot and still meet our objective of not taking out long-term loans while making capital improvements and increasing assets on hand. Our future is bright, both from the standpoint of the budget and improvements.”

Rep. Graves visits DSHS Advocate staff report U.S. Congressman Garret Graves, of Louisiana’s 6th District, visited students at Denham Springs High School on Nov. 20, speaking to the Advanced Placement U.S. government and politics classes taught

by William Bradford.

Graves was invited to the campus by Denham Springs School Board member Buddy Mincey Jr. Graves answered students’ questions and discussed issues concerning the federal budget, immigration, same-sex marriage, Syrian refugees, the Islamic State, the Keystone pipeline and the slate of Republican presidential candidates, a news release said.

He ate lunch with students in the cafeteria and visited with cafeteria workers as part of the National School Nutrition Association’s Congressional Lunch Challenge.

“Nobody else has Strawberry Jubilee, where our students get to eat free strawberry shortcake, or our annual Gumbo Ya Ya event. It’s all the things that add up to the experience of being a student and a Lion fan at Southeastern.”

Aside from wanting to pay tribute to the university, Eliza Kate served as a major inspiration for the book.

“She thinks that she is Roomie’s personal keeper, and whenever friends come into town she wants to go play around the base of Friendship Oak,” said Cowser.

The book is titled “Let’s Lion Up With Roomie!” which is a reference to the phrase “Lion Up” used by Southeastern students and faculty.

It refers to a sense of pride shared by the Lion faithful, and involves an unmistakable hand gesture that originated with the Lions baseball team who made it popular, and has since been embraced by all Lions fans, she said.

Cowser explained part of her pride in Southeastern comes from the family vibe it gives off.

“It comes back to the Southeastern family, but at the same time you’re getting an unpar-

alleled education and you’re among people who truly care about their school. Just knowing I can bring Eliza Kate to tailgating, where she can run around and there will be at least 20 people out there to help me keep an eye on her while she was bounces around with her pompoms and chases Roomie, is great.”

The book has been out for a little over a year and the process has been very enjoyable for Cowser.

“People are still calling me and asking me to do book signings,” said Cowser. “They’re really enjoying the book, but more people want books signed by Eliza Kate than me.

It has just been a lot of fun.”

“Let’s Lion Up with Roomie!” is available for purchase at several stores throughout Hammond, including Bayou Booksellers, Bayou Baby, Berrytown Produce, Chaucer’s Pharmacy, the Louisiana Children’s Discovery Center gift shop and P.J.’s Coffee (downtown Hammond and University Avenue); and in the Southeastern Bookstore.

Books also can be purchased at Cavalier House Books in Denham Springs and the Olive Patch in Covington. Copies may also be ordered from mascotbooks.com, Amazon. com, BarnesandNoble.com and booksamillion.com.

Denham Springs coach Kevin Caballero

Live Oak coach Gary Duhe

“His guys are tough, and coach Duhe is big fundamentally.”

“I consider him a dear friend and also someone that I hope I’ve mentored the right way.”

Former childhood neighbors battle as high school coaches They grew up on the same street in north Baton Rouge and attended the same local high school.

Decades later, Live Oak coach Gary Duhe and Denham Springs coach Kevin Caballero are something of neighbors again in District 4-5A boys basketball.

One of the area’s most accomplished basketball coaches, SPORTS ROUNDUP Duhe landed at Live Oak after the LHSAA suspended his position as the director of the Louisiana High School Coaches Association. After spending the first 25 years of his coaching career in the Monroe area, Caballero left his post as the Sterlington High coach when the Denham job became available and he saw a chance to return home.

Duhe graduated from Redemptorist in 1971 and Caballero in 1977.

Before beginning a career in head coaching that would include three state championships and two runnerup finishes, Duhe served as an assistant at Redemptorist when Caballero was a player during the school’s basketball heyday.

“I’m not real excited about going to play against Gary,” Caballero said with a smile, “but it is fun to see him and he’s always been there to help.”

Duhe and Caballero have two meet-

Scott Hotard

ings scheduled during 4-5A play and could also meet in the upcoming parish tournament.

“I consider him a dear friend and also someone that I hope I’ve mentored the right way,” Duhe said of Caballero.

Duhe’s decorated career has seen stops at Central, Trafton Academy (now The Dunham School), Plaquemine and, most recently, St. Amant. He also served two years as a Dale Brown assistant at LSU in the mid-1980s.

But it all began at Redemptorist, where Duhe got his first coaching job as the head coach of the eighthgrade team as a second-year college student.

In those days, Redemptorist basketball was a factory of sorts that produced championship teams and a long line of future coaches.

One of those future coaches was the youngster who grew up down the street from Duhe and later played basketball for the young Redemptorist assistant. Duhe remembers lining up with Caballero in the Redemptorist gym to see who would be the first to drain a pre-practice heave from midcourt.

“Most of the time,” Duhe said, “he had to buy my lunch.”

Redemptorist won a state championship in Caballero’s senior season.

Two years later, Duhe was promoted to head coach and, in the early ’80s, would lead the Wolves to two more state titles.

Both coaches continue to value the very principles that were instilled in them as part of that great run.

“We’re honoring the legacy of Redemptorist with any success we may have,” Duhe said of their alma mater, which closed after the 2014-15 school year.

Caballero had two stints as the head coach at West Ouachita. During his most recent stop in coaching, he compiled a 168-89 record at 2A Sterlington and led the Panthers to five 20-win seasons. He served as an assistant at Louisiana Tech under former Redemptorist teammate Keith Richard from 2000-05.

Caballero said he sees a lot of Duhe in the teams he coaches.

“His guys are tough, and coach Duhe is big fundamentally,” Caballero said. “I think if you can get the guys to buy in, you’ll be successful. I always believed that if you work hard, good things will come to you at some point.”
