Seems we aren't the only one thinking some of our elected officials are out of touch with our residents and their city. Remember what the Tarrant Regional Water Districts priorities are suppose to be, maybe they need a reminder.
Letter to the Editor in today's Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
Field of priorities — not
I guess Jim Lane, Tarrant Regional Water District board member and former Fort Worth councilman, must be a little behind on current events. Some City of Fort Worth employees lost their jobs, and those who remain, except for police and firefighters, have taken a pay cut to make up for a budget shortfall. Surely no reasonable person who knows this would suggest that Fort Worth should buy a baseball field.
— John Langevin, Fort Worth
In response to Mr. Langevin's letter: if recent history and current events tell us anything, it's that we citizens/taxpayers shouldn't be surprised (actually, expect it)if/when the City does exactly what Mr. Lane suggested. To our elected and staff officials, FW and Tarrant County is just a big ol' Monopoly game board and they get to play with real taxpayer dollars which benefit their real close friends and allies. Whose turn is it to roll the dice?--TRV? TC College?
