CITY COUNCIL

Millions of dollars in improvements will be hitting Oak Cliff thanks to a City Council vote from late May. Improvements include, $68,000 for the sculpture of Stevie Ray and Jimmy Vaughan in Kiest Park, $3 million improvements on Sylvan Avenue, $14,000 for erosion control at Martin Weiss Park and a stoplight at Colorado and Marsalis.

The Oak Cliff Municipal Center on Jefferson, which houses the city’s Sustainable Development and Construction Department, is set for a $20-million addition. The addition would comprise 38,000-42,000 square feet, including a parking garage. The cost includes conceptual design, structural review and cost estimate for a future renovation of the existing municipal center. It would be paid for from a fundcomposed of building inspection fees.

FAITH AND FARMING IN BOTH, ORGANIC, LOCALLY CULTIVATED AND FRESH IS BEST

That’s true love and homegrown tomatoes.
