‼️‼️‼️VILLAGE NOTICE‼️‼️‼️

LA 10 DETOUR & SAFETY CONCERNS!

Residence of Elizabeth,

As the state begins the $1.65 million replacement of the Mill Creek Bridge this Monday, August 3, 2026, our local streets will temporarily serve as a primary detour route LA DOTD.

A high volume of heavy highway traffic and unfamiliar vehicles will redirect onto our local roads. I know many residents are concerned, as am I, about increased heavy traffic, noise, and unfamiliar vehicles or people entering our neighborhood.

PLEASE know your safety, your family's security, and your peace of mind are my absolute top priorities as your Mayor.

❗️Actions Being Taken❗️Increase Patrol:
Local law enforcement is fully aware of the detour route. Speeders and reckless drivers will be ticketed immediately. The safety of our children, who have become accustomed to flowing freely through our streets, will be our top priority with NO exceptions.

❗️Monitoring Restrictions ❗️
Law enforcement will ensure commercial trucks stick strictly to state-designated routes LA DOTD and stay off small residential side streets.

Here is how YOU Can Help ⬇️

☑️ Avoid Main Street: I am strongly urging parents to instruct their children to completely avoid riding bicycles, golf carts, scooters, side-by-sides, or other recreational transportation across Main Street.

☑️Extreme Caution Mandatory: If crossing Main Street is absolutely necessary, it must be done with extreme caution. Stop fully, look both ways multiple times, and yield to all oncoming traffic. Highway drivers do not know our village or where our children play.

☑️Lock Up Securely: Please take the extra precaution of locking your vehicles, and home doors at all times.

☑️Light Up: Keep your outdoor porch and security lights turned on through the night to deter uninvited visitors.

MOST IMPORTANTLY REPORT IMMEDIATELY! If you see something, say something! This is your village, these are your streets, and these are our kids. If a vehicle is speeding, looks out of place or is acting suspiciously, do not hesitate. Call the Allen Parish Sheriff's Office right away.

We might be a small community, but I know that we will stay alert, vigilant, and concerned about one another. We will get through these next seven months by staying alert, staying connected, and keeping our village safe.

My office door is always open if you have specific safety concerns.

Sincerely,
Mandy L. Green, Mayor

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

05/24/2026

The Village of Elizabeth is pleased to announce a significant upgrade to police public safety.

Through the LaMATS Municipal Surplus Property Program, we have successfully acquired a fully up-fitted and operational 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe for the Elizabeth Police Department.

Securing this warrantied vehicle allows Elizabeth’s Police Department to enhance local law enforcement capabilities. We are incredibly grateful to LaMATS for creating this surplus program, which serves as an invaluable asset for smaller communities to access vital equipment affordably and efficiently.

I would also like to extend my sincere gratitude to the Board of Aldermen for approving this transaction, and to the Town of Woodworth, Mayor Butler, and Chief Masters for their excellent partnership.

Sincerely,
Mandy L. Green

Yesterday’s “Elizabeth’s Beautiful Blitz” was an inspiring day of service as we came together to honor America’s 250th Birthday.

In coordination with parishes across the state, we were proud to participate in Love The Boot Week, further strengthening our commitment to Keep Louisiana Beautiful. This event was a reminder that positive leadership is rooted in teamwork. Seeing our village employees and residents work side-by-side proved that when we lead with a shared vision, there is no limit to what we can accomplish for our home.

Together, this incredible team collected around eighty-five 55-gallon bags of litter along 1.7 miles of our roads. Littering is a conscious choice, but it is one that is 100% preventable. When we choose to care for our environment, we are choosing to lead by example and invest in the future of the community we love. 🌿

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the dedicated Elizabeth staff and every volunteer who brought their energy and heart to this effort.

I also want to share a special thank you to:

🧡Modern Woodmen of America (Ms. Caroline and Abigail Willis) for their generous donation of supplies and refreshments.

🖤Norma and Reba Ware for preparing a wonderful celebratory meal of boiled crawfish, crabs, and shrimp.

🧡Officer Zack LaCaze for slowing down traffic and making sure we remained safe on the highway.

It is such an honor to lead a community that understands the true value of working together for the benefit of others.

With gratitude,
Mayor Mandy L. Green
