Each day, the Parish Council is committed to the health, safety, and welfare of our vibrant Pointe Coupée Parish community — focusing on the adoption of ordinances and resolutions to move us forward.

As we’ve transitioned to an updated organizational structure, the Parish Council is now poised to facilitate a more streamlined, holistic, and effective approach to governance. As the governing authority for the parish, the Parish Council is responsible for: adopting or amending administrative code; creating or reorganizing parish departments; providing fines or penalties for violation of ordinances; levying taxes, assessments, and charges; adopting the parish budget and appropriate funds; providing for raising revenue; authorizing borrowing money/incurring debt.
