Although the current status of the Community Support Organization for the Unified New Orleans Plan is unclear, there may still be an opportunity for neighborhood groups to nominate representatives. According to the UNOP FAQ, the CSO will have “Five people selected from nominations submitted by individual neighborhood organizations.” Therefore, at our next meeting of the Mid-City Recovery Committees (Monday, August 7th, 6:30 PM, Grace Episcopal, 3700 Canal) we will nominate an individual to represent Mid-City on the CSO.
Update: Scratch all that. I just talked to Brenda Cho and she confirmed that although the slots have not been filled yet, nevertheless the nomination process has been closed since mid-June. Sorry for the confusion.
