Also, it has been a City of Scott Policy that we do not pick up tree limbs or trees cut by an outside party ( tree services.) We have to pay for the landfill use and it becomes too costly. The City does pick up branches and limbs that fall or when residents are only trimming branches or limbs at no cost. If you need more information on sizes for branches, etc. that the city picks up, please call City Hall at 337.233.1130 for further information.
Something to be Proud of....
On April 1, 2010 The City of Scott was awarded "The Cleanest City" in our population category for Division 3. Mayor Myers and Claudette Leblanc, Chairman truly appreciate everyone who made this possible "Pride in Your Community" truly says it all. The State Judges came on May 3rd and the City of Scott placed 2nd in the State Contest. Thanks again, for the support and involvement.

Welcome Letter from the Mayor
 Bonjour a` tout, “Good Day to All” Scott “Where the West Begins” and where friends meet. Our City founders were of French, Spanish and of Acadian heritage in the mid 1850’s era. By 1880 “Scott Station” was named by the railroad superindent of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, Mr. J.B. Scott.
Today Scott, Louisiana is where over 8,000 people call home. With our progressiveness, enthusiastic friendly people and proximity to larger major cities. Scott "Where the West Begins" is large enough to give you the services you deserve, and small enough to give you that personal attention everyone strives for. We have an open door policy, and still like to shake hands, and you may even get a hug or two.
Our residents still celebrate the “Joi de Vivre” (Joy of Life) through our music, food, and “Pass a good time” attitude! Come and see for yourself, bring your family and friends.
Great Scott “Look what we got”.
~ Mayor Hazel Myers
