Mayor Ray Bourque

I want to invite you to the biggest and best 4th of July celebration in the area, the Broussard Independence Day Festival, on Saturday, July 4 at the Broussard Sports Complex at St. Julien Park.

I have good news to share. Envision Broussard Phase 2A and 2B are now substantially complete. These sections of our downtown revitalization and infrastructure improvement project include the iconic Broussard gears intersection at Main Street and Morgan Avenue, Main Street from W. Madison Street to the railroad track, and Morgan Avenue from W. Madison Street to Railroad Street. I want to thank residents and business owners for their patience during the construction process.

Our Broussard city employee team and I attended the Louisiana Municipal Association District F meeting in Carencro last night. The meeting was also attended by State Representative Doyle Boudreaux, and representatives from the Governor Jeff Landry's office, and U.S. Senator John Kennedy's office. I would like to congratulate Opelousas Mayor Julius Alsandor for being elected as the new LMA District F Vice President. As President of LMA, I’m proud of the work we’ve done together by unifying municipal leaders from across Louisiana. LMA's mission for 100 years has been to educate, advocate, and support cities, towns, and villages in the pursuit of municipal excellence.
