A public safety tax on the chopping block. The Lafayette Parish City Council is seeing a vote on a half cent sales tax that would go towards public safety this Thursday. The vote will put the tax on the ballot for the April 21 tax election, but some officials are not sure if legal deadlines will be met that soon.
