Not much progress so far.
1. I confirmed it is drainage associated with his pool. Area was dry, they got in their pool and I heard the pump running and low and behold more water from the pipe.
2. A guy from the public works department came look at the issue in person earlier this week. Think he's a project manager? Anyway he said he agrees its a problem but he isn't sure they can do anything about it. Said to give him a few days to look into it. That was tuesday, no response yet. I'll give him a week and if nothing happens I'll look into the permit office approach.
Does anyone know what laws or ordinances I can reference when dealing with the parish? I find that when something doesn't directly affect the person I am trying to get cooperation from (parish worker in this case), I need documentation to point to to make people get off their butts and help.

You could argue your neighbor created a private nuisance with regards to ease of enjoyment on your property. I'd consult with an RE atty
