Biographical / Historical
This version of nolacitycouncil.com was launched in 2004 during the first Nagin administration and lasted until 2016 during the second Landrieu adminstration. Much of the information on the website related to the recovery from Hurricane Katrina, including various economic, cultural, and crime initiatives. The city council also used the website to publish public notices, as well as respond to current events, the Mayor, state and federal government, and legal action taken against the council.
