New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell says an improved weather outlook on Gordon's impacts to the city has led her to reopen City Hall and all city government offices, including NORDC and the NOPL at Noon Wednesday.
“The bottom line is that we have work that needs to get done. The people’s business,” said Mayor Cantrell. “We are grateful that the anticipated impact of TS Gordon has lessened to the degree that work can resume sooner than expected. Understanding this may be a challenge for employees with children out of school --- we encourage our City workers to bring their children with them where practical, and ask our supervisors to make reasonable accommodations.”
Orleans Parish schools are among those who will remain closed on Wednesday.
