The St. Charles Parish Council will hold a regular meeting beginning at 6 p.m. June 3 in the council chambers, located on the second floor of the courthouse, 15045 River Road in Hahnville. The meeting may also be viewed live on Government Access Channel Cox 6 or the parish website. The entire agenda may be viewed here.

Items on the agenda for public hearing include but are not limited to:

• An ordinance to amend the Code of Ordinances by revising Chapter 21, Article I, adding Section 21-1 (g) regarding the installation of culverts in subdivisions containing open swale drainage that have pre-engineered designs for subsurface culverts. Numerous residents of subdivisions that were designed for subsurface culverts but now have open ditch drainage systems have expressed a desire to have their ditches closed in with subsurface culverts. In order to respond to these requests and still maintain the integrity of the overall drainage systems, it is necessary that the parish establish procedures for said installations. The establishment of a pilot program is needed in order to determine what procedures are required to property install these culverts. A fee of $250 would be charged for each lot in the request and paid by the property owners with adjustments made based on the consumer price index. Property owners shall petition the Department of Public Works to request that subsurface drainage be allowed in the pilot subdivision. Property owners will be responsible for all costs associated with installing the culverts. (Sponsored by President St. Pierre and the Department of Public Works)

(Sponsored by President St. Pierre and the Department of Emergency Preparedness)
