About $1.275 million in road and street sales tax will fund mill-and-overlay paving, with roughly $1 million for curb and gutter work being scoped with Tarrant County Precinct 3 to determine how many streets can be done.
Five-Year Capital Improvement Program
The council was scheduled to receive updates on the park restroom and street projects.
Ending the Real Time Transport Program
The council was scheduled to consider ending the city-subsidized Real Time Transport ride program once current funding runs out. Riders who depend on the subsidized service would lose it after closeout.
Right-of-way stakes on Kingsbury Avenue property
Resident Sid Wright says survey stakes marked ROW are deep in his yard with no city notification, reviving a 12–15-year-old right-of-way question tied to old federal sidewalk grant funding. He asked the city to resolve it before any work begins.
