Zachary council sets Oct. 27 hearing on creating a deputy police chief position

ZACHARY - The Zachary City Council will hold a public hearing Oct. 27 on Ordinance 2026-19, which would create a deputy chief of police position for the city, according to the council's agenda. The agenda lists the ordinance for a hearing and adoption the same night.

The ordinance text is not posted with the agenda, so the position's duties and pay are not yet public. A representative of Flock is also scheduled to speak about the company's camera system. Both items are listed under the police chief.

Council members will discuss offering for sale city-owned property at 1030 Rollins Road and hold hearings on two requests to sell alcohol on Main Street: a proposed restaurant at 5755 Main St. and a proposed grocery store at 5145 Main St. Two manufactured-home permits, parade permits for a Nov. 13 Veterans Day parade and a Dec. 5 Christmas parade, and the council's 2027 meeting dates are also on the agenda.

The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at 4700 Main St. It is livestreamed on the city's website.
