Jefferson Parish Council member Dominick Impastato is planning a run for council at-large Division B next year, WWL-TV reports. The seat is currently held by Scott Walker.
Walker is eligible to run for another term, but Impastato is being term-limited out of his District 4 seat.
NOLA.com reports political consultant Greg Buisson urged Walker to run for the District 5 seat being vacated by Jennifer Van Vrancken, who is also up against term limits. According to the report, Walker demurred.
"I don’t play those games. I don’t take part in backroom deals," Walker is quoted.
