What are you doing to prevent your land from being annexed withour your permission?
Below is a list of upcoming meetings that the City of Fort Worth Planning Dept. - Fernando Costa - will be giving presentations of the "proposed" five year and 15 year annexation plans. He will gather the input from the audience at each of these meetings, and report back to the city council. It will be to your advantage to be at several fo these meetings - wearing your "no annex" badges, and telling them how wrong forced annexation is. It's also not fair for the people in their so-called "enclaves" who don't have the same rights as the rest of the Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ).
The 3 MOST IMPORTANT may be the Boswell High School on Jan. 13, the CAFA Meeting on Jan. 15, and the last "Committee" meeting on Jan. 19th.
After those - the
PUBLIC HEARINGS will be IMPORTANT to speak out and / or come and wear your badges and hats!!
