This is the part where everyone's taxes go up for a redundancy of services.


Did you just wake up and start reacting to things. This has been clearly laid out in almost every press conference by the StG organizers. Chief of police is required by law as a liaison for the sheriff and the city. The sheriff will continue to patrol the area of St. George as they do all other cities in the parish if necessary. BR has a police department so they rarely are needed there.

St. G could use surplus funding to expand or supplement the Sheriff's role - could.

No I didn't just wake up to this. I'm just not naive enough to believe a politician when he's selling something because it sounds great in press conference. I certainly don't believe that the state's 5th largest city will only have one police officer in 10 years.

I have yet to come across an organization that had enough money or a government organization that runs efficiently.

I predict that over the next 10 years taxes go up for both BR and St. George, St. Michael's will still be the best high school in the city, Woodlawn will still be a shitty public school, and the surrounding communities and parishes will continue to grow.
