Abbeville is seeing more rain this week.
For some in the city, it will mean watching to see if water rises into their yards. Councilwoman Terry Broussard said that is the case for a specific area in her district.

According to Vermilion Parish Sheriff’s Office’s Public Information Officer Eddie Langlinais, during the morning hours of Monday, Vermilion Parish Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a person thrown out of a vehicle in a rural area south of Abbeville.
Upon arrival, deputies discovered the victim at this location had received multiple gunshot wounds. The victim was being transported to the hospital when the victim succumbed to his injuries prior to arrival.

As Councilman-at-Large for four terms, and Mayor Pro-Tem for 12 years, I have the most experience, the professional integrity, and the proven leadership to serve all of Abbeville’s citizens as their 42nd Mayor.
For the last 15 years, our community’s residents have bestowed their confidence in me to work in City government. Now, I humbly ask for your vote to elect me, Francis Plaisance, as your Mayor in the March 2022 election.
