Cooperative Purchasing Commission to Meet in Marksville

We are excited to announce that the next meeting of the LACPC (lamats.net/lacpc) is scheduled for Wednesday, February 28, at 8:30 a.m., during the LMA Mid-Winter Conference. The meeting agenda includes the discussion and adoption of by-laws for the organization.

The LaMATS-administered LACPC is a participant-directed cooperative joint commission for Louisiana municipalities and local political subdivisions. It was established in accordance with the Local Services Law (La. R.S. 33:1322 et seq.,), which allows political subdivisions to cooperate in the purchasing of materials, supplies, and equipment through a joint commission.

All Louisiana local governments are invited to join the LACPC by passing the appropriate resolution and appointing a commission representative. Contact Claire Shaw, Project Coordinator, at claire@lamats.net or 225.235.6776 for more information.
