(LA) Sell the New Orleans Airport to the State!
New Orleans needs money to improve our economy. The airport brings city a negligible amount of money in taxes every year. In addition, the city has no legal authority to expand the airport and has no leverage with Jefferson and St. Charles Parish about expansion. Selling the Airport to the State will produce badly needed funds for the city. The State has more power to expropriate property for expansion and more money to create the world class airport this city deserves!

(LA) Data-Driven Approaches to Crime and Traffic Safety (DDACTS)
Data-Driven Approaches to Crime and Traffic Safety (DDACTS) integrates location-based crime and traffic data to establish effective and efficient methods for deploying law enforcement and other resources. Using geomapping to identify areas that have high incidences of crime and crashes, DDACTS uses traffic enforcement strategies that play a dual role in fighting crime and reducing crashes and traffic violations. Drawing on the deterrent of highly visible traffic enforcement and the knowledge that crime often involves the use of motor vehicles, the goal of DDACTS is to reduce the incidence of crime, crashes, and traffic violations across the country.
