ECONOMIC DEVELOP DEPT: Requests Louisiana Economic Development to study and report on the riverfront and adjacent neighborhoods and districts in Orleans Parish.

This bill asks the Louisiana Economic Development agency to conduct a comprehensive study of the various government groups managing the Mississippi Riverfront and nearby areas in New Orleans. The study will map out who these groups are, what powers they hold, how they are funded, and how well they work together to maintain public spaces and support local growth. By reviewing these details, the agency will provide recommendations to improve coordination, ensure transparency, and clarify responsibilities among the different entities involved. The final report is scheduled to be submitted to the state legislature by February 1, 2027.
