On Sept. 9, 2025, the City of Broussard Council approved Resolution 853‑25 declaring the Highway 90 and Main Street water tower rehabilitation project substantially complete. Grayson Semo presented final inspection results, saying both towers were completed within budget and about three months ahead of schedule. "Both towers are back in service today," Semo said.
Semo said the final inspection for the Highway 90 tower took place on Aug. 25, 2025; the Main Street tower was finished earlier this year. He reported a small punch list for the Highway 90 tower with final touch‑ups underway, and that the contractor delivered three safety harnesses and a gallon of paint for future touch‑ups. The work was done within budget, Semo said, and the towers are currently operational.
Why it matters: restored water towers are critical to maintaining water storage, pressure and distribution for the city. Council members commended the contractor’s work and noted the project finished ahead of schedule. No public comment was recorded on the item.
Action and next steps: the council accepted substantial completion and approved the resolution by roll call. Staff will confirm completion of remaining punch list items and close out the project documents per standard public works procedures.
