Early Voting Continues Now Through March 21
Early voting continues now through March 21 at the Lafayette Parish Registrar of Voters Office
There are two property tax issues on the ballot for Lafayette Parish voters.
The first measure is a 4.17 mill property tax renewal for 10 years that is used road maintenance in Lafayette Parish.
The second tax measure would take two existing millages, put them into one, and it would generate a little more than 6 and a half million dollars a year that would be spent on mosquito control, animal control and public health.
Right now there is 2.06 millage for public health and a 1.5 millage for mosquito control, but if voters approve the combining of the two then the total $ 6.65 million would be available for all those issues.
Those taxes that generate more revenue than needed for a program, like mosquito control, then that money can be spent in the other areas.
City-Parish President Joey Durel says approval of the combined tax would allow Lafayette Government to return money to other municipalities in the parish that pay LCG for animal control services.
The Lafayette Parish Registrar of Voters Office is located at 1010 Lafayette Street.
Early voting is being held from 8:30 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.
Election day is Saturday, March 28.
