This Saturday, the City of Dallas is rolling out the red carpet for its locals at Fair Park. They've pegged March 30 as the day to visit the Briscoe Carpenter Livestock Center, turning it into a one-stop shop for city services and resources – an event dubbed City Hall at Fair Park, according to the City of Dallas.
The family-friendly affair comes courtesy of the City Manager's Office and promises over 20 city departments under one roof. Budget Town Hall from 1-2 pm to let residents weigh in on the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget – because nothing says fun like fiscal responsibility. For those preferring to chime in from the comfort of their couch, the city's got you covered with options to participate both online and via telephone.
Not just an exercise in civics, the event is also playing matchmaker for the Department of Housing & Neighborhood Revitalization and citizen volunteers. They're setting up camp with a booth primed for chit-chats about their current programs, and for those feeling particularly civic-minded, there's even a chance to join the Inclusive Housing Task Force. The city's clarion call: "Stop by to talk with our staff about current programs and other ways to get involve."
So, if Saturday plans are still up in the air, drop by Fair Park. There's something for every Dallasite, from having your say on budget allocations to finding out how to make your neighborhood a better place. Remember, these reps don't bite, they're there to listen and assist.
