Department Services

The Department of Public Works is responsible for Equipment & Site Management, Pavement Management, Vegetation Management, and Drainage.

Public works departments are responsible for maintaining and improving public facilities such as roads, utilities, and parks. It is a demanding job that requires dedication and hard work. However, even the most dedicated workers need a break from time to time. That’s why it may come as a surprise to some that many public works department employees enjoy playing online slots during their free time and you can also find online slots for your phone.

Playing slot games can be a fun way to relax and unwind after a long day at work. It allows people to escape from the stresses of everyday life and immerse themselves in an exciting virtual world with the chance of winning big prizes. While some might view this pastime as frivolous or unproductive, others see it as harmless entertainment that helps them recharge their batteries.

Of course, there are always risks involved when gambling online, which is why responsible gaming should always be practiced.

We strive to serve the citizens of Ascension Parish to the best of our ability.
