re: FYI, oral argument before La.SC for the St.G. case is this morning around 10/10:30 am

Here the whole issue it goes back to the city parish form of government.

These need to separate to a parish government. Then a city of BR government.
This way city services are paid for by only the city or taxes are raised inside the city to pay for it.

Services provided by the parish are funded separately.

Now the way BR treated the unincorporated areas shows that the city parish form of government chooses to protect BR first. This should not be the case and is a huge reason why the metro council form of government needs to go.
