No matter which party you're in


This will affect YOUR kids.  Show up. 

Dear Friends,

I hope you will join me tomorrow, April 3rd for a very important city council meeting.  The council will receive public comment on whether to lift the current ban on "salt water disposal" wells inside the City of Fort Worth.  The Council will vote on the ban next Tuesday, April 10, and could decide either to extend the moratorium, prohibit wastewater wells altogether in the city limits, allow the wells certain land-use restrictions, or to take some other action. Unless the council votes to extend it, the current moratorium against saltwater disposal wells will expire on April 30, 2012. 

Because of the importance of the outcome of the April 10th meeting, I encourage you to attend the hearing tomorrow, Tuesday, April 3, 2012, at City Hall, 1000 Throckmorton Street, at 7 pm.  City council members need to hear from you on this important topic that could impact our health, safety, and environment. If you would like to speak at the hearing, keep in mind that the usual rules regarding signing up before the meeting and speaking limits will apply. 

For more information about the hearings, please see the City News page.  You can find general information about disposal wells here. You may also call my district office at 817-924-1997 if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Lon
