It’s been a year since Mitch Landrieu was inaugurated as Mayor of the City of New Orleans. How is the new Mayor doing at implementing NolaStat transparency and accountability recommendations?

Here are the findings obtained from research, community feedback, and a May 25th Q&A with administration officials.

In the report each of the four primary NolaStat recommendations is reconciled against administration progress:

• Improve public access to information by publishing city data on a Web portal.
• Improve government responsiveness to public needs with a regularly-convened performance management process.
• Institutionalize reforms and exercise best practices by creating an office staffed with technical personnel and performance management professionals.
• Close the feedback loop between government and citizens by engaging the community to ensure that performance goals and data needs are satisfactorily being answered.
