What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The city council concluded its 2027 budget hearings after receiving presentations from various city departments. The New Orleans Recreation Department (NORD) requested a $19.3 million budget, which is $96,000 less than its 2026 budget. This decrease is attributed to one employee changing departments, and NORD plans to use the funds for personnel and operations and maintenance. The council is scheduled to vote on the final budget on November 19.
