The Department of Treasury offers an easy and free resource to citizens to find and collect their unclaimed money.
State Bond Commission- (225) 342-0040
Lela Folse, Director
The State Bond Commission receives applications from parishes, municipalities, special taxing districts, and other political subdivisions of the State, requesting authority to incur debt or levy taxes.

If the applications are in order, they are placed on an agenda for consideration by the State Bond Commission at a regular or special meeting. Treasurer Schroder chairs and oversees the 14 member State Bond Commission committee, which meets monthly.
