We would propose employing New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) officers and/or Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office (OPSO) deputies through the Office of Police Secondary Employment (OPSE) as supplemental security, and seek to expand the existing “Task Force” Supplemental Police Patrol program to Faubourg Marigny (which would include the use of their mobile app.). Another option is to hire a private security company. To reiterate, it is the purpose and intent that any additional security patrols, public or private, or any other security or other services or betterments provided shall be supplemental to and not in lieu of personnel and services to be provided by the State or the City of New Orleans or their departments or agencies (i.e. the regular work of the State Police and/or New Orleans Police Department in providing for public safety). Additional information about the OPSE can be found at https://nola.gov/opse/faq/.
