re: Budget comparisons between St George & other Louisiana cities

Question: Are these cities providing all of the standard city "services" themselves (e.g., trash collection, law enforcement, sewerage, road maintenance, cleaning/clearing of public areas, etc.)?
Because my understanding is that STG:
will not have sewerage - already parish
will not have trash collection - already parish
will not have LEO - already parish
for which residents already pay the taxes for (either as parish property tax millages or as parish-wide fees).
PLUS, there are private entities that take care of the other "city services" on a contract basis for a fee, which could be where the additional "savings" are coming from.
Just a thought.
