The bill amends the existing law regarding the Brookstown Neighborhood Crime Prevention District in East Baton Rouge Parish by changing its name to the Brookstown Area Crime Prevention and Improvement District. This change reflects a broader focus on both crime prevention and improvement initiatives within the area. Additionally, the bill expands the boundaries of the district, which will now encompass a specific perimeter defined by key intersections, rather than being limited to the previous subdivision boundaries.
The new boundaries are established starting at the intersection of Prescott Road and Airline Highway, extending west along Prescott Road to North Foster Drive, then north along North Foster Drive to Airline Highway, and finally southeast along Airline Highway back to the starting point. This redefinition aims to enhance the district's effectiveness in addressing crime and improving the community. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated period for bills to become law without signature.
