Did City Council ever explain why the city kicked the can down the road for decades neglecting the building’s maintenance? They should’ve been on top of it and now the city is making a terrible choice because of past bad choices. Also they could literally put all of the costs in a bond up for voters and it would pass because Dallas voters approved every bond measure last time lol even when some of them were completely unnecessary
They kicked the can down the road because they wanted to pay for other stuff first.
But there is no possible way there is a $1Billion in repairs needed.
That's hundreds of millions more than it took to reconstruct Notre Dame.
They voted to recommend to the council to direct the city manager to move 911/311/EOC and other staff to a new government center and to evaluate options for redevelopment of the site. Again it’s a committee so all it does is recommendations.
Don't forget, City Council hates you and doesn't want you to have Public life. They also want to tease down the Central Library. They want you to pay for everything outside your front door.
They don't want protest spaces, they don't want the public to have access to them and they don't want the people seeing anything in this city as 'OURS', as in for the people of Dallas. Everything is a commodity and every person just exists to extract more money.
These people would sell every one of us to a compost company for pennies if it'd mean they have less work to do.
cant help but wonder if all of these companies were to be blocked out from any of the work as it is a huge conflict of interest, if their "assessment" would be the same. Same thing Ft Worth did, come in with a BS high cost to do upgrades to justify a new building. As well, like FT Worth, when they get around to doing a new building it will blow past any costs they projected because of ... you know ... unforeseen conditions.
