St. Tammany Parish, with the help of the American Rescue Plan Act, will embark on water and sewage infrastructure projects. The projects, estimated at $48 million, will be done over the next several years, explains the Parish President Mike Cooper.
“This allocation renews my commitment to ensuring that every citizen of St. Tammany Parish has safe drinking water and reliable water and sewer infrastructure,” Cooper said.
The initial project estimated to cost $20 million, will upgrade water and sewage for around 6,400 St. Tammany residents located in the west part of the parish around Brewster Road. Seven new wastewater pumping stations, five miles of force main, new emergency generators and monitoring technology will be part of the project.
The east side of the parish which will include residents from Cross Gates and River Oaks and the surrounding areas will have $20.4 million in upgrades. The current water system has been having a hard time supporting the area’s fast population growth. This project will include two new elevated water towers, eight miles of water main, two generators and remote monitoring technology.

Your kitchen is one of the main and most important spaces of your home. It goes with the old saying the kitchen is the heart of the home. Kitchen upgrades are very important for this reason alone. When upgrading the space, you want to make sure you choose the right cabinets. Thomasville Cabinetry can help with the choice of your cabinets with the Thomasville Concierge program and can help you from start to finish giving you the perfect style of cabinet for your kitchen. Here are some tips to use when choosing cabinets from professionals in the industry.
Select a Style
Jen Samson of Jen Samson Design says that a flat panel or shaker can be used in almost any style of kitchen. If you love the traditional kitchen, choosing a traditional style with intricate woodwork design and trim will fit the bill perfectly. A transitional look is something in between a shaker and the more ornate traditional look. “We like to add details, like a thin bead detail around the Shaker or v-groove for a fun, more Craftsman-style kitchen,” says Samson.
If you need to see the looks in your space, you can always contact a Thomasville Concierge who can bring samples to you in your kitchen. They can help you with choices and refer you to a Thomasville technician who can answer questions when the cabinets are being installed.
Consider Shelving Carefully
Implementing shelving in your home and choosing just for show can make or break your design. If you are a cook who loves your ingredients and does not want to have all your dishes perfectly displayed 24/7 then an open cabinet shelf is not the way to go. If you like a tidy space, then this might be a perfect solution to displaying your favorite kitchen items.
“I like to mix open shelves and closed storage cabinets. If the home is more traditional, I still like to incorporate one open shelf, perhaps with a pretty brass rod detail on the front, to be used for cookbooks and displaying attractive objects. When there are added design details like a rod or decorative brackets, open shelves can add to the unique personality of the kitchen,” Samson says.
Find a Finish
There are tons of options for finishes such as laminates, matte paint, glazes and stains. One big factor to decide on before deciding on the finishes is if you want a cabinet in color or more of a natural look with a stain. A stained wood cabinet is a classic feel but a laminate cabinet is very easy to clean.
Size Storage Up
A professional like a Thomasville Concierge, can help with not only the design, but also choosing the right amount of counter space and storage. If you customize your kitchen, you can lay it out and choose specialty storage options that will work best for you. Options like wall lift-up cabinets are a great option if you need to have a place to hide appliances that are used frequently.
Remember everything from the hardware finishes, to the style of the cabinet itself is important and needs to fit your style. Having a professional help you along the way will not only be a benefit but also help alleviate the stress allowing you to enjoy the whole experience.
