Actually first started with Kip Holden as mayor. He along with the legislature tried to such this down.

I still rate him as a very decent Mayor for BR, but no, that was not his finest moment.

Kip pulled some underhanded shite but the city was run well enough to have probably withstood an actual vote as opposed to the Clerk of Court shitcanning it.
SWB? She fricked up things so badly that it made this an inevitability. Which is funny as hell given that she was one of the CBC members who said “If you want your ISD, make a city first.”

No. It started when folk in the SE part East Baton Rouge Parish (Woodlawn district) wanted to form an independent school district. Sharon Weston Broome, then a state senator, and Pat Smith told them they had to form a city in order to have this school district. Kip tried to stop the incorporation, but the whole ordeal falls squarely on SWB's shoulders.

Actually, it was then Senator Sharon Weston Broome and Yvonne Dorsey Colombe who told the organizers of the Southeast Baton Rouge Community School district and sen Bodi White that is was unheard of that a collection of neighborhoods have its own ISD, that it would be easier if they were already a city. So yeah it was her fault. She was the spark that lit the fire of St. George.
