I liked the 24 hour rule last year personally. You are of the opinion that most abused it and left stuff out and didn't show up til last second.
I'm of the opinion that most people don't do it that way. We aren't going to agree, so let;'s just call it a day.


I think the reality is this.

The city will do these sweeps today, tomorrow, and probably Friday.

But they won't pay overtime for this. So by mid-afternoon Friday, there won't be any more sweeps. They won't pay extra help to do this on Sat and Sun (all of the regular working shifts on the weekend are assigned to post-parade clean up). Few people work Monday, so they won't have the staff to do it, and Tuesday is like Sat / Sun.

I personally think doing it some days is better than others. You may think it's not worth it. Oh well.

Enjoy your Mardi Gras

Historically, they have done something similar on one day.

Today is one day later than last year. Last year it was Tuesday and they tried to take it all.

This year it's Wednesday and they are only taken what is unattended.

If I were a betting man, I'd say this is it. But possibly tomorrow.

The volume of stuff out there quickly becomes overwhelming for all but the most aggressive enforcement.

They would need 10 flatbed 18 wheelers.
