John came to Shreveport in January of 1977 when he was transferred to Barksdale AFB.
He’s been active in Shreveport politics since deciding to make Shreveport his home.
John practiced law for 40 years and he now monitors local politics. He regularly attends Shreveport City Council and Caddo Parish Commission meetings.
John is published weekly in The Inquisitor, bi-monthly in The Forum News, and frequently in the Shreveport Times.
He enjoys addressing civic groups on local government issues and elections.
The Caddo Commission meets in its regular session this next Thursday, June 5.
Several tax millages will be on the agenda.
One of the millages could be rolled forward. This means the ad valorem taxes on Caddo real estate would be increased.
It is estimated that a roll forward would increase parish revenue approximately $700,000 per year.
