Can someone please explain to me why this project isn’t being done overnight instead of causing major delays and huge headaches for everyone in town?? Why not do this when the roads are the least congested rather than 10 minute delays backing up traffic completely through town.
Join us, the City of St. Martinville, for a special Community Prayer Gathering! Let’s stand together to pray for our city, our country, and our nation.
⏰ When? Thursday, September 28th, 2023, at 6 PM.

Is a boil advisory still in effect?
