Our family would like to publicly thank City Council member Chris Coy and Grapevine Police Chief Eddie Salame for taking the time to visit and explain city policy (made up of Grapevine ordinances and state law) after a very frightening situation with one of our boys being bitten by a dog. We know they are busy and we sincerely appreciate their time and interest after this unfortunate event.
Statewide Term Limits Vote
Each member of our Tarrant Democratic delegation in the Texas House voted for the constitutional amendment vote for term limits yesterday, along with some Tarrant Republicans (Senator Davis too, earlier this spring). Thank you!
Votes on SJR13.
Main Street Days
Friends, the Grapevine Garden Club and the City of Grapevine need our help. To date, we don’t have enough able-bodied folks to help work the gates this weekend at Main Street Days. Can you help make this a fun and safe event for a few hours? Click on this link to see shift dates and times. Volunteers will get free admission before or after their shift. For each volunteer, the city will donate monies which will go to the GGC’s greenhouse project at the Grapevine Botanical Gardens, which will be an asset to the entire community. Please help and thanks!
Follow-Ups
Gave interviews to WBAP and the Star-Telegram about the Grapevine term limits project, accountability and transparency in government. Talked about my belief that a city council position is not a job or a career, nor should it be a financial interest.
Say it with me, “Slow progress is still progress.”
I’m proud of this letter from Rep. Fallon, author of HB 889 to mandate transparency in city council and independent school district open meetings. In 2013, (really 1995) the Grapevine City Council should operate in the full sunshine allowed by modern technology.
