St. Martinville signs intergovernmental agreement with St. Martin Parish for Durand Drainage Project
Summary
On March 17, 2025 the City of St. Martinville entered an agreement with St. Martin Parish to supply parish equipment and labor, at no cost to the city as available, for installation of drainage pipe on Olivier Lane; the city will fund materials and must secure required rights‑of‑way.
The City of St. Martinville on March 17, 2025 entered an intergovernmental agreement with the St. Martin Parish Government to advance the Durand Drainage Project.
Under the agreement the city — represented in the minutes by Mayor Jason Willis — will contract for and fund all expenses related to purchase of supplies and materials for installation of drainage pipe using capital‑outlay appropriations specific to the project. The Parish, represented by Pete Delcambre, Parish President, agreed to provide available equipment and labor without cost to the city when the equipment is needed.
The agreement is explicit that parish assistance is contingent on the City obtaining any required rights‑of‑way from property owners whose land aligns with the southernmost line of Olivier Lane. The document also states the agreement will be automatically extended for the same period for the years 2024–2026 unless either party gives at least 30 days’ written notice before year‑end to terminate the agreement.
The minutes record the agreement language and the signatures of the City and the Parish as entered on March 17, 2025. The minutes do not list a construction schedule, contractor selection for materials, or specific start dates for on‑the‑ground work.
