New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell has officially extended IV Waste as the city's trash collector for the French Quarter and Downtown Development District.
The move comes after the Louisiana Supreme Court issued a temporary injunction against the administration's contract with Henry Consulting, which was set to start collecting trash Thursday.
IV Waste would have continued trash collection under a contract with the French Quarter Management District, but the high court's injunction left in question who would collect trash in the CBD and Warehouse District.
Cantrell's extension means the city will continue collection garbage in those parts of downtown.
The deal with IV Waste runs through the end of 2025.
