And everywhere else.
Way back in 2008, the Mayor and a council member stood on the side of the road and promised to fix streets in north Fort Worth if voters passed the combined bond.
In 2010, residents were still asking WHEN?
Far north Fort Worth residents aren't so sure. They point out that downtown projects have already gotten their share of funding, while roads for their area have languished.
"I pretty much guarantee it went to the Trinity River Vision bridges, which is exactly what we said would happen," said Shirley Gansser, who analyzed the city's financial data for the North Fort Worth Alliance.
Residents' concerns about the Trinity River project prompted Moncrief to make his appeal in 2008.
The alliance wanted the city to split the bond election into two propositions, one for roads and one for the Trinity River bridges. Moncrief appealed to voters to support the whole package, and it passed with 68 percent of the vote.
The expansion of North Fort Worth in the Alliance area and beyond has caused many issues for those citizens. Last year, THE PEOPLE informed us all of the lack of emergency response to that area.
In this week's Star-Telegram, seems the story is still the same. What happens when you do nothing? It just gets worse.
As usual, the comments tell the story.
