| Notes | 2022/23 - The budget will include a 4% pay increase for all employees as usual. The Bossier Levee District will be doing drainage work on ditches, channel clearing and levee surfacing as well as a few other specific projects as well. Some projects that were completed are: HDPE inserts on Red Chute Levee Project, Passing Lane Surfacing on Red Chute Bayou (work finishing up the state contract - Red Chute Widening Project), Crowing Lane Drainage Improvement Project, just to name a few. The Bossier Levee District strives to work towards improvements being made to the Red River along with the CORP's assistance. Like all entities we strive to provide a great and safe workplace and monitor the continued but less severe Covid situation as it still seems to affect some things on a daily basis. |
