I've been wondering why our city has not taken a stronger stance on issues of public
safety, similar to what other nearby communities have done. Recently, I've learned that
there are individuals in our area who are here illegally, driving without insurance, and in
some cases causing accidents — leaving law-abiding citizens to pay for repairs out of
their own pockets.
Additionally, I was surprised to hear that 911 calls may not always result in a response
unless someone is physically injured. Does this mean that these drivers, and others
them, are allowed to continue driving until someone is seriously hurt or worse? That is
deeply concerning.
Why would we, as a city, be comfortable with such risks? Shouldn't we be working
closely with ICE and other law enforcement partners to protect not only our community
but also neighboring ones?
Has the council discussed taking a firmer stance, similar to the City of Keller? Or is
public safety simply not being given the priority it deserves? Looking forward to your
response.
