Are questionable charges and outdated records costing New Orleans taxpayers millions?

Newell Normand

About this episode

A new report from Louisiana Legislative Auditor Mike Waguespack reveals major discrepancies in the City of New Orleans’ sanitation and recycling service lists. State auditors discovered that nearly eight percent of the city’s eligible service locations, nearly 13,000 addresses, may be improperly listed, leading to hundreds of thousands of dollars in overpayments for duplicate, vacant, and non-existent properties while the city faces a multi-million-dollar sanitation budget deficit. Mike Waguespack joins Newell to talk about it.
