[quote]Are they inside the Shreveport city limits?

Ellerbe? I think that's the neighborhood. I don't know the situation well, but I thought some of it was inside the city of Shreveport.
It's not really easy to incorporate if you are not already part of a city. It's probably imp...

Just so long as far more of St. George's tax revenue is spent outside of St. George......that's been the trend clearly.

If you look at the map....they took out all the neighborhoods that did not support incorporation in the first petition in the second petition, which is what the voters ultimately passed. The neighborhoods included in St. George happe...

That's actually fair if all parties negotiate a price in good faith.
And that's what I've seen happen in similar circumstances in other states. We need to understand what % of tax dollars wer...
Do all Entergy customers lose electricity often or is that just a local thing?
Posted by member12 on 4/29/24 at 6:59 am
There is an area in my parish where one side of the street is Entergy, and the other is a local co-op.
The Entergy side of the street has service disruptions constantly, and they take a very long to restore power. The other side rarely loses electricity and unless there is a hurricane, it ge...

Not Satire: UCLA School of Medicine's DEI czar plagiarized her dissertation on DEI

Ironic that the DEI lead plagiarized her dissertation on DEI.

I think an overlay district that dismantles old abandoned signs, improves lighting, sidewalk, street pavement, landscaping, etc. would significantly help. Zoning to improve signage and aesthetic quality of new developments would also help. Honestly they need to do that across every city and town...
