Voters renew millage that funds Vermilionville, Bayou Vermilion District
Lafayette Parish voters, in a low turnout election Saturday, renewed a .75 mill property tax that funds the Bayou Vermilion District and Vermilionville.
Seventy percent of the voters who cast ballots favored renewing the existing tax for another 10 years.
Voter turnout for the Oct. 11 election was low with 7.7% of the parish's 161,827 registered voters showing up to the polls.
There were only two items on the ballot: the millage renewal for the Bayou Vermilion District and a millage renewal for the Lafayette Parish School System.
