The city recognizes the need for planning and coordination of criminal justice activities
within the Parishes of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Iberville, Livingston,
Pointe Coupee, St. Helena, Tangipahoa, Washington, West Baton Rouge and West Feliciana.
The federal justice system improvement act of 1979 provides for the combination of
units of local government for the purpose of forming an entitlement jurisdiction under
the provisions of section 402 (a)(4) of the act. The Capital District Law Enforcement
Planning Council, Inc., was established in December of 1968 for the purpose of planning
and coordinating activities of area criminal justice agencies, reducing duplication
of functions within the area, and reducing fragmentation of administrative costs associated
with delivery of services. Therefore, it is the intent of the city to continue this
affiliation with other jurisdictions within state planning district II. It is the
intent of the city to combine with other parishes and cities of state planning district
II to form the capital region criminal justice council, a regional entitlement organized
under provisions of section 402 (a)(4) of the federal justice systems improvement
act of 1979.
