I called the police department. They said to call town hall tomorrow. If I can find out who this Mayor guy is, I am definitely calling him directly since the folks at the town hal didn't seem to know what they were doing the first time.
Ya know, it's attitudes like yours that give the rest of the state that warm fuzzy feeling about people from New Orleans. Your ticket is NOT the only one the town processed that month and believe it or not, Mistakes do happen. Enjoy your 894 'cause you can't get another one for five years.
