Petition To Elected Officials
July 23, 2006

You arrived at this page by clicking on a “Petition” link but you don’t see a petition to sign! Did you really think it would be that easy to make your voice heard?

The best way you can help to oppose the construction of elevated and continuous feeder (service road) lanes by the Texas Department of Transportation is to:

WRITE MY PERSONALIZED LETTER to my Elected Officials

and

NOTIFY ME ABOUT ATTENDING A PUBLIC MEETING

TxDot’s public meetings are the only official mechanism they accept for public feedback and your comments are supposed to become part of public record. We’d like to publish the date and place for TxDOT’s Public Meetings but their notification process intentionally excludes key stakeholders regarding transportation projects. TxDOT is legally bound to provide ONLY one meeting notice. Their meetings take place at any location of their choosing and these are usually a considerable distance away from the affected neighborhoods. TxDOT’s “Notice of Public Meeting” can appear anywhere in the newspaper, at any time within thirty days prior to the meeting. (More on TxDOT’s process). StopTxDotNow has made it our business to know when and where this meeting will occur and we will notify you immediately. Please provide us with your contact information through our online form so that we may notify you of important dates and actions required. Your privacy is honored.

Are you still wanting to sign a petition?

Now that we’ve inspired you to write personal letters to your local officials and explained the need for your attendance at public meetings, we want you to know that we actually do have a petition that you can sign.

We will be delivering a copy of this petition to various elected officials who can help us to oppose the construction of elevated and continuous feeder (service roads) lanes by the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) within the I010 corridor or right-of-way East of the Washington/Wescott intersection. We’d like to remind you that the content of our petition makes a good basis for a PERSONAL LETTER that you send to your Elected Official. Please let us know that you’ve sent written letters by Contacting Us.
