Vermilion, Iberia resolve long-standing boundary issue
Vermilion Parish and Iberia Parish now have an official map that brings an end to a boundary issue that began five years before the start of World War I.
Engineer Gene Sellers said his research found the issue began in 1909, with the first survey that attempted to resolve the dispute.
It ended last Tuesday, 112 years later, when Sellers presented a map to Vermilion Parish Police Jury President Dane Hebert and Iberia Parish President Larry Richard. Other officials from both parishes joined the meeting, which occurred in the meeting room at the Iberia Parish Courthouse.
