Lafayette Councilman Questions Lack Of Summer Day Camps
Lafayette Consolidated Government doesn’t have any children's summer day camp programs planned yet.
Mayor-President Josh Guillory said this during last night’s meeting in response to a question from District 5 councilman Glenn Lazard. Guillory says the city is looking for more public-private partnerships to develop summer programming for the parks and recreation department. Lazard says he’s fine with public-private partnerships, but he feels it’s need that should have been addressed.
“The fact that here we are talking about not having any kind of scheduled or programmed summer recreation programs, and if we’re talking about COVID, that’s fully understandable," Lazard said. "But if we’re talking about not having any because of ‘lack of funding,’ then that’s a whole other story altogether.”
