This happens all over the south in cities that create a lot more value than BR. So I'd say the answer is no. It's not like this happens every year.

Probably nothing. If anything, you're probably saving money by having the lights off at all the government offices. Pretty much anything in BR actually producing money (plant baws?), is still operating.

Get some tire chains?

It would take DOTD a week to get said equipment running in this weather.

How much do you think this is costing the state exactly? I don't understand the premise.

Cajun Navy could put snow plows on their F250s.

1/2” of snow isn’t significant enough for plows. Thawing solution and a street sweeper would suffice.

2014 Winter Storm Economic Impact

I don’t believe this captures the lost wages of workers that translate into income/payroll taxes & spendable income that generates sales tax revenue.
