Does Edwards have the power of the Mayor of New Orleans when it comes to ending the stay at home? I know LaToya extended the city's until the 15th but if Edwards ends it on the 1st which one is in effect? Does she outrule him within her City? I was told over the weekend she actually has the power over him but can't find anything one way or the other.


Cities are political subdivisions of the state. If JBE wanted to, he can dissolve the mayor's executive order.

My guess is JBE will frame it, "these new rules apply to all areas outside Orleans Parish. Orleans Parish will apply their own rules". This is simply to prevent a Dem vs Dem fight. But JBE could tell Destroya to F off if he wanted to.

Do you really put JBE in the same category as the governors of Illinois and Michigan?

It's not all black and white, despite what the O-T and Poli Talk boards think =)

He will probably let the dumb kunt keep her order in place. Jefferson Parish will follow what the gov. says.

Going to be some interesting times when Metairie goes fully open in a few weeks and Nola is still closed.

Indications to the press ahead of the press conference is that May 1 still good for starting Phase 1. What exactly is included in Phase 1 is the big question.

Tennessee's governor allowed any county with their own health department to make their own call on opening up or extending stay at home orders. It was all at the county level, not city, although Orleans is all consolidated anyway, right?

What I posted was confirmed by one of the Loyola Law professors, on WWL radio, about a week and a half ago.

Maybe the person heard it backwards.

Prediction


Stay at home will not be extended and expire 4/30. Lots of lecturing about SD, etc. Many threats about his ability to lock everything down again.

Predicted summary of this press conference:

I think we will get some relief but it won't be as much as many of you want. Re-open gyms and nail salons, barber shops, beauty salons, etc, with 50% capacity Re-open malls possibly with limited hours / days, as well as all other non-essential retail, still with 6 foot spacing and capacity limits Movie theaters, casinos, bars, video poker, racetracks, etc remain closed to the public Restaurants in-location dining allowed with 50% capacity. All employees that come within 6 feet of a customer must wear a mask. Still no gatherings of more than 10 people. Still no travel ball.


That seems incredibly optimistic, especially the restaurant part.

He’s stated multiple times he has no intention of extending the order.



He had said he doesn’t see the order being in place in its current form. The current order will expire but another one in some form will take its place.

Orleans is consolidated, that is correct.

My guess is JBE doesn't want a piecemeal approach, but he's probably not going to fight Destroya, either. Most of the surrounding parishes are pretty conservative and certainly won't be wanting more restrictions than what JBE is suggesting.

The first phase will still involve a litany of restrictions on businesses, the governor has suggested. For instance, when restaurants reopen, they will likely be required to space out customers and employees could be required to wear face masks.

Large venues like sit-down dining, movie theaters, sporting venues and churches can operate under “strict physical distancing.” According to the guidance, gyms can reopen with strict sanitation and distancing protocols, but bars should remain closed.

I would be extremely surprised if he allows this much freedom beginning May 1.
