Livingston Parish President Layton Ricks says he won't seek re-election next year and will leave the role after leading the parish for more than a decade.

Ricks made the formal announcement during a parish council meeting on Thursday. He will exit office when his third term ends in January 2024.

Ricks has said it's always been his plan to be a three-term president and that he feels he's leaving the parish in good shape.
