From the City of Broussard
BROUSSARD, LA (September 9, 2024) – There’s a possibility of severe weather later this week. The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) is tracking Tropical Storm Francine in the Gulf of Mexico, which is expected to make landfall in Louisiana. Residents are encouraged to prepare now.
Sand and sandbags are available at the following locations:
• Broussard City Hall – 310 East Main Street (behind dumpsters)
• Deer Meadow Subdivision – corner of Deer Meadow Boulevard and Myette Point
• Broadview Drive – by the Broussard Community Center
These sandbag stations are self-bagging and are open until the threat of heavy rain has passed. While the sand and sandbags are free, residents must supply their own shovels and manpower.
Starting today, do not place trimmed branches or yard debris at the road for pick up until after the storm has passed.
As of now, Waste Management garbage service will run as normal.
The city will provide further updates this week.
