Unified New Orleans Plan Meeting Change

July 30th, 2006

It has come to our attention that today’s city-wide meeting for the Unified New Orleans Plan has been rescheduled. It has been moved forward from 2:00 pm to 12:00 pm.

This is one of only two city-wide community meetings. This meeting begins the community involvement in the selection of technical assistance teams and urban planners that will support neighborhoods in planning. The process is scheduled to end on August 7th with some form of poll.

  • Unified New Orleans Plan Meeting
  • When: Sunday, July 30th, 2006 at 6:00 pm 12:00 pm noon to 4:00 pm.
  • Where: City Park Pavilion, New Orleans, LA. Map of City Park. Map to City Park.

Some of the controversy has been recorded by citizen web sites. Maitri has written a request for citizen research into the planning process. At Kenilworth New Orleans expresses the concern about the outreach surrounding the meeting. Becky Houtman has written and essay on the history of the planning process in New Orleans.

Update: Sorry that the email newsletter went out with an incorrect meeting time. Please lave you angry messages in the comments section.
