Brady Broussard Jr. seeks re-election to District C seat on Abbeville City Council

It is with great humility that I announce my candidacy for reelection as your District C councilman.
Citizens in District C and throughout the city, what a privilege and honor it is to be serving you as your Abbeville CIty Council representative.
There is much to report to you in District C which includes the completion of major drainage improvements which increases significant outflow to the river and rain water accumulation reduction which is already producing improvements within District C.
I am pleased to report that the grant-funded streetscape program has been completed on Pere Megret Street and Magdalen Square. The beautification of that area with handicap accessible points throughout the downtown now make our historic downtown more beautiful and inviting.
I am honored to serve you in so many ways including as Insurance Committee Chairperson, Recreation Committee Chairperson, on the Electrical Committee and on a new A. A. Comeaux Park Committee which is now focused on bringing large tournaments and tourists in greater numbers to our community to support our business community in many ways.
Each of your council representatives are now considering ways that we will invest the American Rescue Plan $4,400,000.00 funds into our current city infrastructure, including improvements to our water and sewerage systems.
The City of Abbeville has a $550,000.00 road overlay plan for the downtown area of Hwy 14 from Main Street to the Courthouse. The city is urging our state to move that to priority status with funding for those badly needed road repairs in the heart of our downtown.
I continue to work closely with our local Abbeville Main Street program and director as well as our Keep Abbeville Beautiful organization, our local Abbeville Garden Club and all organizations including the Rotary Club that I belong, who all contribute to the quality of life in our community.
My work on the City of Abbeville electrical committee has resulted in the cost to our citizens and businesses are now amongst the best rates in Acadiana. We are proud to make Abbeville an affordable community to live and work.
I continue to work with the Mayor and Council on each city budget, including the 2022 budget which demonstrates fiscal responsibility with fewer employees and smaller government to do the same job for you. My working relationship with the VPPJ members who also serve Abbeville results in more projects and progress for District C.
District C is home to many new opportunities for children and families with the Splash Pad, Skate Board Park, New Tennis Courts, Two pavillions, Football Field and improved baseball parks for local school teams and tournaments.
The many conversations and meetings I have with each of you in District C and across the city represent what I value most in our community. Working together we can accomplish so much for each other and each issue or need is important to me and answered in timely fashion. I continue to work helping many of you get well in the comfort of your homes in my job at Acadian Homecare and Kaplan Homecare. My wife Reba and I also provide affordable and safe housing to many citizens in our city. We are active members of St. Mary Magdalen Church, where I serve on the Finance Committee. Giving back to our community, it’s what we and many of you focus and depend on.
I do thank you again for the opportunity to serve you in these unique times we are in now. Please continue to contact me at home 893-2918 or city council office 898-4208 to talk or meet.
I appreciate your continued encouragement and support, and humbly ask for your vote in the municipal elections to be held on March 26th, 2022 for reelection.

God Bless,
Councilman Brady Broussard Jr.
