Saw the mayor, police chief, etc. talking on TV tonight\u00a0 about the removal of all\u00a0 port-0-lets from the neutral grounds that are around the St. Charles Avenue, Napoleon Avenue, and Canal Street for Endymion.<\/p>\n

This is no new tradition. Many of the families around the parade routes have been paying for their own Port-o-Potties for decades!! Whole families and groups depend for decades on this relatively unobtrusive, since they appear and vanish within 10 or less days without fail.<\/p>\n

I do not think the Mayor or Police Chief are using the right logic in carrying out this decision without any public opinion sought. I wouldn’t be surprised if the City Council revisits this ban very quickly.<\/p>\n

Orleans Police Chief Ronal Serpas<\/p><\/div>\n

What’s the deal here? Has the city been paying for the Port -o- Lets on the neutral grounds?\u00a0 The answer is NO NO NO!! So what is really behind this decision?<\/p>\n

OTHER OPTIONS FOR BATHROOMS ON THE NEUTRAL GROUNDS ON NEW ORLEANS DURING PARADE TIME<\/p>\n

Right Aid at St. Charles and Louisiana Avenues have a dozen port-0-lots available. They are free for cutomers, and $2 for everyone else, and the money aids the New Orleans Musicians Clinic!<\/p>\n

My group usually hang out on Napoleon Avenue around Coliseum Street. Sophie Gumbel School offers clean bathrooms very cheaply. The fees benefit the school. $5. per day per person as many times as you like. $2. for single usage. A great deal!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
