Dear friend of my Dad:
How do you like being told which two days per week you can water? It's about to get worse if you don't get involved. The City of Fort Worth says a survey proves that citizens overwhelmingly support making these restrictions year-round, even if the lakes are overflowing. Their survey was misleading, not even asking specifically about "designated watering days."
Now the city is trying to add fmiher supp01i to their idea of year-round water restrictions by having two public forums that are tightly scripted. The first forum in North Fort Worth on Tuesday night, June 25, attracted only 13 citizens and about 25 to 30 city staffers and paid vendors. The city undoubtedly will use the opinions of those 13 people, filtered through the meeting's controlled small group format, to justify their position.
The second forum is Thursday night, June 27:
Refreshments: 6:00PM
Meeting: 6:30 to 8:30PM
Unity Church of Fort Worth
5051 Trail Lake Drive
I will be at Thursday's forum and am asking you to sacrifice an evening to attend. With light attendance expected, your attendance could play a big part not only in stopping the idea of year-round water restrictions (which would be among the harshest in the nation) in their tracks but also rolling back the current restrictions to make them more flexible and compatible with sound water conservation principles.
Above is part of my analysis of Designated Watering Days and the Woodard Plan for conserving water while making Fort Wotih a friendlier place to live.
I hope to see you Thursday night. If you are unable to attend, please call me about another opportunity on July 9 to bring sanity to our water conservation efforts.
Regards,
Blake Woodard
