Moreauville mayor provides flooding assistance update

Over the coming weeks, several organizations will be coming to the Moreauville, Simmesport, Bordelonville, Plaucheville, and Dupont areas to assist residents affected by the flood. These organizations will provide help with the removal of furniture and debris, as well as certain tear-outs at no cost to those impacted.

Recently, Mayor Beryl Holmes and Councilman Timothy Hill met with leaders from Hope For International regarding their organization’s efforts to provide assistance to flood victims throughout the area. Moreauville is grateful for their willingness to partner with local communities during this time of need.

Mayor Beryl Holmes indicated that as she receives additional information, she will share it with the public. For anyone who lives in the Moreauville area and needs assistance, contact the mayor to get added to the list.

At this time, the mayor cannot provide a specific date for when assistance will be available. Priority will be given to elderly residents, widows, and single-parent households. However, the goal is to eventually assist everyone in need.
