I'm glad my dad retired from S&WB before all this shite happened. He was always complaining about how so much was broken and took years to get something fixed.

Grant already set him up with the statement about his subordinates not being forthcoming with info. He just got checkmated without seeing it coming.

This guy is a fricking patsy. Grant retires, this poor sap takes the fall and gets fired, and nothing gets fixed.

EDIT: GET TO THE PUBLIC COMMENT PORTION. If the Council can't keep the chamber orderly during presentation, I can't WAIT to see what goes down when they give the public the microphone.

The city council is acting like they're blown away that there's corruption in the S&WB and problems with drainage.

And they keep saying they want to find who is responsible.

Hey, dipshits, it's you. You're responsible. These are things that have been brought up repeatedly in the past. Mitch used them in his mayoral campaign.

Latoya just admitted yall knew about the bullshite the S&WB was spewing and they didn't do shite about it

I think Becker just realized his 30 years at SWB just ended a few minutes ago. He won't be at that job by the end of the week.

Poor fricker has to be escorted out of the hearing by NOPD officers as people are threatening him.

And yep, gray just confirmed it's B. Becker had no idea he was being fed to the wolves. He just watched his career implode.

Dude needs to be on suicide watch. That reality slap in the face that he was the fall guy for the whole S&WB without knowing it until halfway into that hearing has got to hurt.

I want to see what the Bitch is going to have to say after all these lies that came out today. He went on WWL this morning and straight up lied himself.

As the mayor of the city, he HAS to come out and give a statement after all this is over with.

Is anyone watching thinking things are going to change? A few people will lose their jobs and the City Council will move on to the next tragedy/news story. This will be brought up when the city floods again while they're still in charge in 2025.

Cedric Grant just "retired" from the S&WB


The way things work in NOLA, Cedric will come back as a consultant for Mitch making even more money than at S&WB..

The guy talking now just implied the Council/Mayor will not allocate the money to spend on the maintenance contract. What does the council do? Ignore it and move on to more grandstanding.

What's the reason behind the lower electrical feed? Is the service sized correctly?

Did you see how absolutely carefully Williams tiptoed that response and then moved on. That realization hit him and he covered quick.
