Parish Chief Warns of $80,000 to $100,000 Shortfall
Ouachita Parish Police Jury must find an extra 80 000 to 100 000 next year to subsidize the parish landfill after Monroe pulled out. Parish Manager Wallace Hargon foresees service cuts unless revenue sharing funds can cover the gap. He notes programs will suffer, with recreation and public buildings among affected areas as inflation worsens finances. The city’s exit could save Monroe about 75 000 to 80 000 annually.
