The City of Natchitoches Office of Community Development oversees capital projects that enhance the community. Such projects include the oversight of the recent rehabilitation of Front Street, sign installation and the renovation of City Hall. The department is responsible for preparing and tracking annual Capital Outlay Budget requests to the State of Louisiana for infrastructure improvements.
The Office of Community Development serves as the City’s economic development liaison, helping developers find suitable properties, infrastructure and incentives for their projects.
