Donaldsonville Mayor Leroy Sullivan: City Spared of Damage, Flooding from Hurricane Laura

Donaldsonville Mayor Leroy Sullivan provided an update live via the city’s Facebook page Thursday. He said the city was spared of any significant damages and flooding from Hurricane Laura.

Tornado warnings the day before Laura made landfall were sent out around the area. A tornado was reported in nearby Paincourtville, but officials in Assumption Parish said no damage was found.

“We drove around the city looking to make sure there were no downed trees or anything needing immediate attention,” Sullivan said.

He thanked members of the Ascension Parish Sheriff’s Office, the city’s Fire Department, Parish Council member Alvin “Coach” Thomas, and parish government employees for their assistance.
