The citizens who attended the meeting in Arlington this week must have felt like they were in Fort Worth. Read the Letter in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Good question.
No speaking allowed
Arlington Mayor Robert Cluck is choosing to use his position as a bully pulpit.
The Tuesday council meeting was a short 90 minutes, yet Cluck refused to let a number of reasonable residents speak about the transportation development plan before the council voted.
He announced he plans to do the same thing for the hike-and-bike public hearing on June 28. Two 30-year plans -- and the mayor will only allow 20 minutes for each side?
How can residents be part of the public process and go on record if they are not allowed to address the council?
