DELCAMBRE — The town of Delcambre is enforcing stricter regulations regarding loud music emanating from private property or vehicles in the city.
Residents were at a Delcambre city council meeting to complain about their neighbor playing loud music from their vehicle. When they called the police department and an officer arrived, the music was turned off. When the officer left, the music was cranked up.
“I have trouble with the boom noise,” said a resident. “It is every day.”

Vermilion Parish Registrar of Voters Tina Broussard wasn’t sure exactly what kind of start to expect for early voting for the March 29 election, which opened this past Saturday.
There’s only one race on the ballot for the March 29 election, and that’s a special election for a seat on the Abbeville City Council. However, four constitutional being on the ballot opens it up to every voter in Vermilion Parish.
Nearly 700 voters have already taken part in the process. Broussard said as Tuesday morning that 222 voted in-person, with another 470 returning absentee ballots.
