| 1. How can the NOPD force be increased, while maintaining high standards?
| NOPD officers who wish to live in the City will be offered the deed to blighted homes. I would turn the French Quarter to the National Park Service which would free about 300 officers to focus on other areas of the city. |
| 2. Will you support an ordinance to establish an independent external evaluation of the Ethics Review Board as called for in the Charter? Please explain your answer.
| We will establish a blue ribbon committee to look at privatization of the Sewage & Water Board. Privatization will then be voted on by the people. |
| 3. What do you think are the three (3) most important issues facing the citizens of New Orleans.
| Infrastructure, Public Safety, Economic Development |
| 4. What steps would you propose for improving the Sewerage and Water Board?
| I believe infrastructure set up should remain same however we must all work togethe to improve it every day. I do not believe in privatizing the sewage and water board turning it over to another large corporation like Entergy. I believe people working for sewage and water board are dedicated public employees and I wish to support them. But on the other hand I wish to improve evolve every aspect of their work to a better & higher level. I will organize a high level team of engineers To advise and supplement. |
| 5. How do you propose to reduce crime, and especially violent crime, in the city?
| As Mayor I would bring the court system, DA, and Chief of Police together so we are on the same page. |
