NO? About twenty or thirty D-9 Caterpillars would be a good start.

Build another container port near 9th ward.

they’re building one in Violet but the residents don’t want it that much.

I would say annex like 10 different parishes and 2 Mississippi counties to recapture people who want to live near and enjoy a world class city without paying their fair share for it

It should be mandatory for incumbent politicians to participate in an annual Thunderdome tournament for re-elections.

It’s hopeless. Have you read the OT?

I will be moving away in a few years. Being close to Nola is the only reason to live in this state with mouth breathing tards.
Now it’s a waste

Set up a metro government encompassing Orleans, Jefferson, and St. Tammany. The knuckleheads would be outnumbered 2:1 here, ergo it should have as much power as possible.

What remains of city government should use a council-manager structure.

Get the kids back in school and enforce truancy laws with a vigor that would give Mao Tse-Tung pause. Do the same with a tough new juvenile curfew.

Ditch all the Covid-19 restrictions permanently. The charter changes necessary to switch to council-manager should also include a permanent renunciation of any power to make such restrictions in the future.

Disband are reconstitute NOPD and OPCSO, with new officers, new leadership, and a new name.

Allow zero tolerance for "gutter punks" and bums.

Get rid of the Civil Sheriff's Office, Public Belt Railroad, Levee Board, etc.

Build a massive, subsidized public garage where the Hard Rock Hotel wreck is.

End all welfare and replace with a WPA work program. Teach work responsibilities. Raise minimum wage levels above the WPA wage level to encourage upward mobility.

Not Taxing the non profits is one of the biggest downfalls of NO and the state.

Also the corrupt pandering loser politicians.
