Due to ongoing water main work on Southfield Road, residents in the vicinity of the project area may experience temporary brown or discolored water.
If you notice discoloration, please run cold water only from a faucet for a few minutes until the water runs clear. This is a temporary condition caused by changes in water flow during construction and does not typically indicate a water quality issue.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as this important infrastructure work is completed.
City Hall will be closed on Friday, July 3, in observance of Independence Day.
We will reopen for normal business hours on Monday, July 6.

🌳 Reminder: Curbside Chipping Service Ends June 29, 2026 🌳
The City's curbside chipping service, provided by Fontenot, will conclude next Monday (June 29).
Due to budget constraints, the City Council voted at its February 23 regular meeting to discontinue this service at the end of the current fiscal year.
Beginning July 1, 2026, property owners will be responsible for the removal and disposal of branches from their property, including branches from trees located within adjacent tree lawns/right-of-way areas.
Residents may consider the following options for branch disposal:
✔️ Hire a private chipping service at their own expense
✔️ Cut branches into smaller pieces and place them in yard waste bags for collection
✔️ Properly bundle brush (less than 2 inches in diameter and less than 4 feet in length) for yard waste collection by Tringali
✔️ Burn branches in a properly constructed and legally permitted fire pit on private property, in accordance with applicable regulations
Residents who wish to utilize the City's curbside chipping service should place eligible branches at the curb before 7:00 AM next Monday (June 29).
Thank you for your understanding as the City continues to manage services responsibly while addressing budget challenges.
We will reopen at 8 AM on June 22.
