Council Vice President Moreno Statement on IV Waste Continuing Services in French Quarter and DDD
|
New Orleans, LA – The Mayor has now officially signed off to allow IV Waste to continue servicing the French Quarter and Downtown. I appreciate the Mayor taking this step to keep IV Waste until the end of the year. It was a tough battle to get to this point, but I’m proud of the Council for taking a stand on behalf of the people and to ensure public dollars are not wasted.
