Here's some commentary on the 4-4 vote on 1031 Canal:
http://neworleanscitybusiness.com/th...ns-to-council/
Apparently there were two commissioners absent this vote and three the last vote! Do these people get paid to not be there?
All the while looking at other city development threads on this forum, a massive three block development in downtown Miami went through one vote in one day and got approved. Why can't we have that?
And this from 1031canal.com:
Considering both the June and July CBD-HDLC meetings,
7 of 10 CBD-HDLC commissioners voted for approval.
(6 votes are Needed for a Legal Ruling)
The problem:
Those 7 commissioners have not been present at the same meeting.
