PLAQUEMINE, La. (AP) - Iberville Parish voters will get the opportunity on April 5 to vote up or down on two 10-year tax renewals that generate revenue for fire protection in parts of the parish.
The first tax is a levy of 3.95 mills on all property that will generate approximately $193,300 annually for volunteer fire protection services in District 1, which covers most of the St. Gabriel area.
The second ballot measure is a levy of 6.78 mills on all taxable property that’s expected to generate about $100,540 annually. That revenue will fund volunteer fire services in the North Iberville area.
