From a 2017 article, “For an additional $50,000, a chemical compound that's resistant to algae and fungus was applied to the resurfaced roof, Phil Ashurst, Cajundome operations director, said.”

they must have forgot to add the chemical compound or we only bought the compound that covers black algae.
Well then two things could be true.
1. UL’s study is legit and done by legit engineers, and LCG is wasting their money on these ponds.
2. Instead of using qualified engineers, LCG opted to work with people who don’t know their butt from a hole in the ground.
Either way… pas bon.
And this isn’t even getting into the numerous State, Federal and Local laws LCG appears to have broken in pursuit of this drainage plan which could end up costing the parish tens of millions of dollars in fines and settlements.
Again… pas bon.
I said the MEDIA doesn't know it's butt from a hole in the ground. I wouldn't trust what the media says.
The spoil banks should have been gone years ago. The corp of engineers put them there and Mr Wingate, who is with the Corps said they should be gone. Actually, they should have never been there.
The bid was apparently won by a company named LA Drone Services. The cleaning will be done by a drone.
I still want to know how we spent $50k on a chemical that made the roof “self-cleaning” and gave a “20-year clean warranty”, only to have the roof look terrible within 5 years (the roof was bad in 2021).

Great point. I’m curious what funding sources were used for this fecal festival, and what funds will be used to rectify this. The parish side has been struggling before consolidation, city money should not be spent outside the city limits, neither city or parish money should of been spent outside the parish, and Lord forbid, the federal Covid relief money was spent on this. Cannot phantom such work can be tied to the outfall of Covid. Nor should city money be spent outside the city limits to rectify the mistakes in the parish. Dedicated taxes should be spent as dedicated by the voters.
What an utter failure on multiple levels. The fear of flooding made all the politicans more concerned about their own futures and prudent thinking never entered the picture until the courts got involved. THEN and only then the councils quickly washed their hands and dumped the questions on the MP, who should of known better.he's a lawyer.
As far as the dome and fly ash from sugar cane, yes it happens. The roof on my parents home when they built was originally white shingles. In the fall, the ash would land on the roof and cling on the shingles. Next roof was black.
Thanks for your work on this. It’s clear to me, and considering the sources you’ve listed, someone is FOS. Either the self cleaning chemical is BS or the mouthpiece of the CD decision makers are lying.
