OneAcadia’s Creative Placemaking initiative got a shot in the arm this week when the Acadia Parish Police Jury contributed $2,500 to the project.
By a narrow margin, members of the Acadia Parish Police Jury voted to look around for roads on which to spend their DOTD “right-sizing” credits.

A Waste Connections truck empties an “old” roll-out cart after emptying one of the “new” models during regular pick-up Tuesday morning in Rayne. The company currently is in the process of delivering the new, blue carts — one per residence — throughout the parish. Residents are encouraged to bring their old carts to the roadside on pick-up days whether or not they need to be emptied and to leave them at the road for at least 24 hours.
A new plan is being put in place that should alleviate some of the problems parish residents are encountering with the replacement of trash carts.
