#5 Here's your man and the nature of the problems Louisiana suffers under, officially:

Cedric Floyd, Chief Administrative Officer

The Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) manages the day-to-day operation of City government. The Chief Administrative Officer, under the direction of the Mayor, shall supervise all departments, except the Legal Department, the Fire Department, and the Police Department. The CAO coordinates emergency management procedures, attends and participates in Council and Agenda Meetings, and represents the Mayor as directed.

Chief Administrative Officer Cedric Floyd was appointed to the highest non-elected position in city government on January 5, 2004. CAO Cedric Floyd has been a resident of the city of Kenner for over forty (40) years. He is a graduate of Bonnabel High School and received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Louisiana State University in 1980.

#8 Floyd's party affiliation can most likely be deduced from the fact the wire story doesn't mention it.

#9 LOL. Sorry, RC, Floyd was appointed by the acting mayor, a Republican.
From Black votes elect Kenner's new mayor: Floyd is the first black Chief Administrative Officer that Kenner has ever had, appointed by Capitano's ally Council President(acting Mayor, Dominic) Weilbaecher. He contends that the black community had confidence in Capitano and that it believed that the councilman would continue Weilbaecher's popular policies. I> Capitano's opponent in the mayoral race was the present Police Chief, Nick Congemi and brother of the outgoing Mayor Louis Congemi. Claims of payback from the Congemi's in 5.4.3.2...

#12 A late post @ www.wwltv.com ( a N.O. CBS station) has stated that the CAO has aan arreat warrant out and the mayor has suspended him w/out pay. Looks like either there is something to this story, or maybe a 'jail accident' will keep the truth quiet...

#13 Floyd didn't just hit his expiration date and go bad this week folks. There are multiple red flags over the years with your man there. Keeping it all in mind, take careful note that his company worked on redistricting electorial boundaries. At the time of the most recent theft, Cedric was in charge of the emergency effort for Kenner. We wonder why the Katrina debacle. Here's a small glimpse at the answer on the local level.
