It has been 9 weeks since The Tarrant City Council broadcast a council meeting.

Transparency sounds great as an election promise or as a soundbite for the local news, but in my opinion we aren’t seeing very much of it from the new council.

We are unavailable to go to the meeting tonight and as such will not be able to live stream. Unless the city has decided to continue their live stream, it would be in your best interest as citizens to go to the meeting to find out what is discussed.
