How much do you want to bet that her name is Phyllis Landrieu (Senator Landrieu's queenlike aunt)?
I've read it several times.
Phyliss Landrieu showed up late (that's in the full minutes) and then assumed complete control of the meeting. That latter part is obvious even in the excerpted text above.
Yes, it was Landrieu who effectively stonewalled the City's request to include NOPS school buses in the City evac plan.
In June of 2005, and probably at every turn in previous years.
