Road Lighting Millage (1.00 Mill)
Streetlights provide safety and visibility in our unincorporated areas. This 1.00 millage renewal funds the electricity and maintenance of these lights. Without it, our streets would go dark, posing risks to drivers and pedestrians. The millage keeps our communities well-lit and safe.
There are 2,471 light poles in the unincorporated area of St. James Parish. The bill to light these poles exceeds $25,000 every month.
