NEW ORLEANS, La. — Tulane University’s Zeta Psi house burned down on Oct. 9, marking the fifth time a fraternity house has caught fire at the university since Hurricane Katrina.
The university requires that each of its 18 fraternity houses be inspected annually by the state fire marshal’s office, The Times-Picayune reports. However, because the houses are privately owned, the university is limited in what it can do.
Tommy Milliner, president of Maple Area Residents Inc. said his group is looking into proposed zoning changes for the area that would preserve the status of fraternity houses. The group, Milliner said, would prefer those zoning changes be more restrictive.
