I can gather some changes are on the way. What are some that you can point out? Will BR kids be able to go to Woodlawn? I don't guess so anymore.

There is no St. George school district. Woodlawn is part of the East Baton Rouge Parish School System. If you live in East Baton Rouge Parish, and attend Woodlawn, nothing changes.

Serious answer as to what now:

Transitional government is created until elected government takes office. This has some potential for lawfare but less than the rest of what I'm about to list.

I believe the transitional and/or elected government must then start the process to create its own school district separate from EBRPSS. This will probably involve years of lawfare as it pertains to funding, real property, staffing, etc.

Meanwhile, years of lawfare will probably also be occurring in regards to property annexed by BR since the St. George petition.

And while all of that's going on, more lawfare will probably be occurring in regards to the financial obligations EBR and the consolidated city-parish government owe St. George and the obligations St. George may owe to the parish.

And at some point I expect the sheriff's elections to become extremely toxic in regards to St. George receiving perceived favoritism by EBRSO if the new city doesn't effectively staff it's own city agency.

Suffice it to say the next ten years will be interesting.

What now?

No fleecing of tax payers by BR; low crime, laws actually enforced, criminals punished, and police given the green light to do their jobs without worrying about being called "racists;" good schools; halfway functional local government; a good way of life and a better place to live and raise a family than the incorporated City of Baton Rouge?
