A city official says lame-duck New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell is behind an order to remove her successor's inauguration banners from outside Gallier Hall.
Chief administrative officer Joe Threat stated on Sunday that Cantrell had ordered the banners to be removed and then reinstalled prior to Helena Moreno's inauguration on January 12th.
City councilman Joe Giarrusso III, Moreno's incoming CAO, asked Threat about the cost of taking down and reinstalling the banners, in view of the city's budget troubles.
