Chapter 7: Retain and Expand Green Space

In 2015, it appears then Council Person Susan Guidry re-zoned West End Lake Shore Park to Multi-use in a manner that violated the State Law ACT 378 calling for written approval of neighbors within 300 feet of the park.

Policies for Decision Makers:

The policies listed in New Orleans Master Plan are clear: Items 1 through 4 direct Decision Makers to retain park space and promote tree planting.

A Request was submitted to the New Orleans Planning Commission to return the zoning of West End Lake Shore Park to Park from Mixed-Use.

Please email members of the Planning Commission to take action to return the zoning of West End Lake Shore Park to “Park.”
