Council to finalize Lemoine Building purchase, Northside rezoning
SUMMARY: In June, the Lafayette City Council approved $6.5 million in bonds for LFT Fiber to purchase the former Lemoine building at 214 Jefferson Street, currently its rented headquarters. LUS allocated $3.5 million from reserves for sewer and power line repairs due to stormwater infiltration causing losses and limiting new housing connections. The Council plans to rezone over 30 properties between Mudd Avenue and E. Simcoe Street for mixed commercial and residential use to promote development, despite challenges from a new short-term rental ban. Additionally, the 400 Block of Renaud Drive will shift from industrial to mixed-use zoning. ADA upgrades at Rosa Parks Center are delayed, doubling the timeline from three to six years.

SUMMARY: WWL anchors joined Chef Kevin Belton in the kitchen to prepare country-style ribs and whiskey pudding cake.

The ribs were a hit among station staff, with many lining up for servings. The whiskey pudding cake was also popular, with a recommendation to double the recipe.
