The New Iberia City Council will vote to move along a project for local home repairs at Tuesday’s City Council meeting.

The council will vote to approve awarding a contract to Paul J. Allain for the “One Block At A Time – 1 Project” and authorizes the mayor to execute any documentation in connection to the project. The project will use American Rescue Plan Act funds to assist with home repairs for seniors, low income and disabled residents in New Iberia.

The city has been advertising the project for several months, and includes grants for operable shutters, handicap ramps, minor carpentry, exterior painting and landscaping.

In other business, the council will vote to award another contract to Allain for the Community Centers Restrooms Upgrades Project as well.

A resolution awarding a contract to Domingues, Szabo and Associates Inc. for the Jean Street Pump Station Upgrades Project is on the agenda as well. Domingues, Szabo and Associates will be awarded a sewer replacement project contract on Pollard Street if approved by the council as well.

An ordinance adopting the transfer of the Sugar Cane Festival Building from Iberia Parish Government to city government will be up for final approval, and Mayor Freddie DeCourt will also address the council regarding recent city improvements at the meeting.

The meeting takes place 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at New Iberia City Hall.
