https://www.myneworleans.com/snapshots-52/ Dear St. Charles Association Members and Supporters:
This Saturday, May 4, the citizens of New Orleans will vote on a 20-year renewal of 6.31 mils in property taxes. This is not a tax increase; it is an extension of an existing tax and a more equitable redistribution of that tax. Currently, two property taxes totaling 6.31 mils expire in 2020 and 2021. The current property tax benefits the New Orleans Recreation Department Commission ("NORDC"), Parks and Parkways and the Audubon Commission/Audubon Institute ("Audubon") as follows: NORDC – $5,000,000; Parks and Parkways – $5,000,000; and Audubon – $10,800,000. If approved, the renewed tax will remain at 6.31 mils for 20 years but it will now be divided among NORDC, Parks and Parkways, Audubon and – for the first time in its 169 year history – City Park as follows: NORDC – $6,400,000; Parks and Parkways – $6,000,000; Audubon – $6,400,000; and City Park – $2,000,000. At our last meeting, your Board of Directors voted to endorse the millage as it will provide greater resources to Parks and Parkways (which maintains the St. Charles Avenue neutral ground and live oak trees), NORDC (which maintains parks and play-spots such as Danneel Park fronting on the Avenue), and Audubon Park. This is an important election and we encourage our members and supporters to vote on May 4. Should you want additional information on the millage, the most accurate and complete explanation of the proposal is contained in the Bureau of Governmental Research ("BGR") report, which the BGR recently issued when it recommended that the millage be adopted. Thank you for your consideration of the millage proposal. And remember, May 4 is a Jazz Fest Saturday – so be sure to vote early. Paul J. Masinter, President, St. Charles Avenue Association > View the BGR Report FILMING NOTIFICATION - NCIS New Orleans – Thursday, February 21, 2019

Paul Masinter, President of the St. Charles Avenue Association, had written to the council members expressing SCAA’s opposition to the salon and was one of three speakers at the February 7th meeting. The building owner needed a conditional-use permit to operate as a neighborhood commercial establishment, since the building had been vacant since 2017. There is a two-year waiting period before the building owner can submit another request for the zoning change. > Read more on Uptown Messenger Join Mayor LaToya Cantrell and New Orleans' Park Partners to learn about the city-wide parks millage proposal (on the May 4, 2019 ballot) in a series of neighborhood meetings that run from Feb. 7 through Feb. 25 throughout the city.
