Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Forney public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
District boundary expansion of approximately 13.6253 acres
Adding about 13.6 acres to the road district expands the area subject to its powers and consent conditions. The city's existing conditions would apply to the whole district after the addition.
Historic District Preservation
Homeowners requested approval to build a metal flat-roof carport attached to their garage within the Historic Overlay District. Neighbors spoke in favor, and the board approved the request.
Animal Shelter Operations
Forney is considering a 4-day work week to compete with other cities for top talent. This shift could mean longer daily hours for city staff but might change when you can actually get your errands done at City Hall.
Annual Board and Commission Reappointments
Forney is refreshing its volunteer boards and commissions with experienced community members to keep local planning, zoning, and advisory groups operating smoothly over the next two years.
