§ 25-144. Land use survey by UNO.
The land use survey conducted by the University of New Orleans College of Urban and Public Affairs identified twenty thousand eight hundred fifteen and forty hundredths (20,815.40) acres of land within the Hurricane Protection Levee system as not being developed, six hundred seventy-two and ninety-nine hundredths (672.99) acres on the East Bank and twenty thousand one hundred forty-two and forty-one hundredths (20,142.41) acres on the West Bank. This is the amount of land available for new development. The survey shows that the West Bank is where main growth and development opportunities exist for Jefferson Parish. The existing land use of Jefferson Parish is discussed in detail in Chapter 4, Existing Land Use.
