Splitting the city will cause issues in the parish government and will likely exacerbate some social issues between the two areas.
quote:I would wager that people told Zachary and Central the same thing. People now flock to both of these areas for the public schools. Property values in these areas have skyrocketed as well due to improved schools.
If you think all that is worth having your own school district composed of the same kids plus some magnet kids, along with the same teachers and some of the same administration go ahead and vote for it.

You keep bringing up Zachary and Central as examples. So why not research what they had to do with their property taxes once they established their own school systems? Both of them were already paying school property taxs before they split.
Plus, both of those cities have geographic areas a tiny fraction of the nearly 85 square miles of the proposed SG city limits.

They were high performing schools when they were in the old system. They both pay almost double the millage of EBR I property taxes.
