At least the parking is. According to the Times-Picayune (dontcha just love that name) article traffic officers are writing about as many parking tickets as they did before Hurricane Katrina. Most of the P and D machines installed and then destroyed by the storm have been replaced, as have most of the staffers let go. The 170 person parking department was down to 10 but now is rocking and rolling.
Of course more tickets means more complaints so they have opened a hearing office and hired four additional hearing offices to handle those who wish to contest their citation.
