The FWADG Board conducted a highly productive planning retreat, establishing clear strategic direction for 2025. Working collaboratively, the board developed comprehensive action plans aligned with their theme “Discover the Worth in Fort Worth Avenue: A Vision for 2025 and Beyond.” The session benefited from expert input from Deborah Carpenter of District 6’s City Plan and Zoning Commission, who provided essential context regarding PD 714. The board also engaged in strategic discussions with Marcus Shropshire and Brian Kilpatrick from the Trinity Park Conservancy, identifying opportunities for synergy between their respective initiatives along the corridor.
