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

by law I believe therff Ed has to be a police chief. The size of the dept. is up in the air.

new local sales taxes and property taxes



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?
