Seeer system belongs to the Parish, but I suspect there will be a public works dept.

I expect Sales taxes and property taxes currently in place will remain in place. They were all put in place by the voters. I can’t see any new taxes in the immediate future, but who knows?

Already have one...actually two: St. George and Eastside.
