NEW ORLEANS - District "C" Councilmember Kristin Gisleson Palmer is hosting a community meeting to outline next steps for the Housing Authority of New Orleans (HANO) proposed development at 4100 Royal Street. On May 23, 2019, the Council voted to support Councilmember Palmer's modified zoning approval for the housing complex. A planned development was also initiated for the site, which is newly available under the City's inclusionary zoning laws.

During the meeting, Councilmember Palmer will explain how the planned development will ensure the building fits the overall character of the neighborhood and discuss the implementation of a working group. The working group will consist of all stakeholders including HANO's developers, community members, future residents of the housing complex and a neutral facilitator.
