There is no excuse for the blight & crumbling infrastructure plaguing our city.

Dilapidated housing and potholes that dot almost every block lower property values, invite crime, and send a message that New Orleans is not “open for business.”  My plan for solving this involves enforcing the rules already on the books.  If that means allocating more resources to code enforcement, then that’s what we’ll do.  Property owners have a responsibility to honor their investment in our city – and you have an expectation that they do.  Whether you own or rent your home, it’s still your city, too.

- Get code enforcement departments to work as one

-  Review and improve the blight hearing process

- Establish clear goals for the Sewerage and Water Board and the Public Works Department, so public roads and utilities receive targeted, timely and correct repairs.
