Dallas may hold a vote on a bond deal worth $1.25 billion that includes funding for city streets

A bond package with a total value of more than one billion dollars is being proposed by the Dallas City Council to the voters. All across the city, countless improvements would be made using the money that would be allocated.

An election for bonds would provide the city with the opportunity to acquire the funds necessary to address a number of urgent issues, the most important of which is the state of the city streets.

Complaints about it are common among both residents of Dallas and tourists that come to the city.

Therefore, on Wednesday morning, members of the Dallas council will examine the manner in which cash from a bond proposal that might potentially be worth $1.25 billion would be distributed.

It has not yet been determined how much the total will be.

However, there are other council members who have voiced their support for a budget of $500 million for the upkeep of streets, between $250 and $300 million for parks and leisure, and tens of millions more for buildings that are dedicated to public safety and cultural arts.
There would also be a sizeable amount to assist in addressing the housing problem that the city is experiencing.
