Help protect your pet with permanent identification! The Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center (LASCC) is hosting a low-cost microchip clinic.

This clinic is open to the public and welcomes dogs and cats.

Event details:
• Microchips: $15 per pet
• Includes lifetime registration
• Payment accepted: cash or credit cards only

Most lost pets are found within just 1–3 miles of their home. A microchip provides a reliable, permanent way to reunite pets with their families if they go missing. LASCC scans every pet upon intake, and veterinary clinics will scan found pets at no cost.

This clinic is part of LASCC’s quarterly microchip clinic series, making it easier year-round for pet owners to take this important step.

Join Lafayette Consolidated Government for a groundbreaking ceremony celebrating the start of the MLK Sidewalk Improvements Project along Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.

This project includes the removal and replacement of damaged sidewalk sections with a new 5-foot-wide concrete sidewalk from the I-49 Frontage Road to Lincoln Street and represents an important investment in pedestrian access, safety, and neighborhood connectivity. Improvements will also include the installation of subsurface drainage pipes and structures to support long-term durability and pedestrian safety.

Lafayette Consolidated Government, in partnership with the African American Heritage Foundation, will host a flag raising to commemorate Black History Month. The ceremony will honor the achievements and contributions of African Americans throughout history and highlight the importance of heritage, culture, and community.

As LCG advances several efforts, including a new website nearing launch, this session creates space to align around how we communicate, invest, and show up as a community. This is not about unveiling a brand or redesigning a logo, but rather about shared understanding of who we are as a community, celebration of the work being done across local organizations to move Lafayette forward, and laying the groundwork for long-term collaboration as this work evolves.
