FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KEVIN M. VOISIN FOR TERREBONNE PARISH COUNCIL DISTRICT SIX

HOUMA, Louisiana - Kevin M. Voisin, announced his candidacy for the Terrebonne Parish Council District Six. This lifelong resident of Terrebonne Parish plans to make ideas into reality. In making his announcement he issued a call to action: “Stand for Something!”

“With the untimely death of Leland Robichaux, this district needs someone to stand up and act. We have talked around and examined our major problems for decades. As councilman I will stand for the best interests of District Six and I will not sit down until those interests are being met with tangible progress. I look forward to working with the Claudet administration in bringing a new day to Terrebonne,” said Voisin.

“Coastal restoration, levees and drainage are easily the most important issues facing the council today. These issues are priorities that directly and dramatically affect our homes, businesses, and livelihoods. Barrier islands and levees protect us all while proper drainage protects each of us individually. Both systems are essential and need complete and consistent attention”, said Voisin.

Voisin continued, “Terrebonne Parish is flourishing! We have made small steps to improving the infrastructure in the Parish, but the time has come for a more focused effort at building ‘Actual Size’ infrastructure that the Parish is going to need heading into the next 20 years. I will not stand for infrastructure that is too small the day it is completed. I will support the four-laning of New Orleans Blvd (LA-182) all the way to Prospect Street, of Hwy 311, and of Valhi all the way to Savanne Road.

“Throughout my travels across our nation and to over a dozen countries on five different continents, I have seen many sites, but few compare to the beauty of Terrebonne Parish. I will stand for showcasing this beauty by constructing more parks, biking/walking trails, and green spaces for our citizens and visitors to enjoy.

“I will be a tool in the hands of my constituents - a tool that should listen and act much more than he should talk. I look forward to hearing the needs of the district directly from the people and to standing as their watchman. Effective communication and decisive action will be hallmarks of my leadership as a councilman”, concluded Voisin.
