One being while it may be "legal", it's unethical for a candidate to accept half a million dollars from a contractor that has many contracts and lots of business with same city. (Sound familiar, Fort Worth? North Richland Hills?)
Yes, said contractor is one in the same that WFAA.com was investigating the money trail for the Las Colinas project.
"You don't accept money from people who are accepting city dollars or who you are going to have a vote to accept city dollars,” said Van Duyne. “You don't take money from them."
Irving's new mayor says she will also call for a more careful review of the entire entertainment center project.
She says this doesn't mean she's not in favor of moving forward with the project; she just doesn't believe it is feasible or sustainable.
Wonder if Van Duyne would consider moving to Fort Worth? We take campaign contributions from big business and have a project that the citizens believe isn't feasible or sustainable, even if that is the latest buzzword.
