St. Charles Parish
Summary
The assessor showed that industry — especially Entergy — drives parish revenue, with Entergy paying $41 million a year, and that residents' bills keep rising mainly because the homestead exemption hasn't grown while property values have. Local millages, though, have been cut substantially.
