From Entergy New Ordeans:

“Entergy New Orleans is pleased to invite you to our upcoming Town Hall on September 16th at Heroes of New Orleans. As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping the community informed, these gatherings offer valuable insights into the latest improvements being made to our electric grid.

This session will specifically highlight Resilience and Reliability—core elements of our grid hardening initiatives. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of why fortifying our infrastructure is more crucial than ever, especially as storms grow in frequency and intensity. We’ll demonstrate how our continued investments help minimize outages, accelerate restoration efforts, and bolster the long-term stability of our community.

Town Halls provide an excellent opportunity for us to connect directly with our customers, fostering meaningful conversations about the City’s progress and the collective steps needed to strengthen our grid. We encourage you, along with members of your organizations, to join us and actively participate in this important dialogue.”

Join us and our guest, Councilman-at-Large Matt Willard!

Mayor Helena Moreno invites all New Orleanians to attend one of seven town hall-style meetings, focused on gathering public input on the 2027 City Budget and on the priorities for our city’s future. The meetings will provide residents with an open opportunity to share their priorities directly with City leaders and to guide the direction of the 2027 City budget prior to introduction for debate at the New Orleans City Council later this fall. 

The City’s 2027 initial budget proposal includes opportunities to repair, enhance and modernize critical infrastructure; promote fiscal responsibility and accountability; and foster community economic development and long-term job growth. The budget is also intended to prioritize investments in neighborhoods and small-business development and to improve quality of life for residents across New Orleans.

The Budget Meetings are among the many opportunities for community input in the City’s spending decisions and serve as a platform for city budget architects to learn about your priorities as citizens shape the future of our city.

All residents are encouraged to attend and take an active role in the discussion.

Residents can visit the City’s Budget Website for more information and to submit questions and comments ahead of the meetings.

The District C Westbank meeting is on Thursday, Sept. 10, Martin Behrman Charter School, 715 Opelousas Ave. Doors open at 5:30 pm and the meeting will run from 6:00-7:30pm.
