ALL GRAND PRAIRIE AND ARLINGTON PROPOSITIONS PASSED
Grand Prairie Propositions - Special Election
- Proposition A - Reauthorization of the local sales and use tax for maintenance and repair of municipal streets for eight years.
- Proposition B - Charter amendment to add deputy mayor pro tem, who shall be selected from among the members of the council and shall perform all duties of the mayor in the mayor pro tem’s absence or disability.
- Proposition C - Charter amendment to remove any redundancies or inconsistencies, correct any typographical errors, make any necessary language gender neutral, and remove or modify any language that conflicts with or is preempted by other state or federal law.
A May 3, 2025, special election has been called by the City Council for qualified voters of the City of Grand Prairie to consider adopting or rejecting the following propositions:
Arlingtion Propositions - Bond & Charter Election
- Proposition A - Streets: $136,995,000
- Proposition B - Public Safety: $48,930,000
- Proposition C - Parks and Recreation: $9,345,000
- Proposition D - Downtown City Administrative Building: $3,105,000
- Proposition E - Libraries: $2,425,000
- Proposition F - Amendment of Section 2 of Article IV of the City Charter to provide that runoff elections shall be held and conducted in accordance with state law. This language would align the City Charter with state law.
- Proposition G - Amendment of Section 7 of Article IV of the City Charter to update the title of the City Health Officer to be Health Authority to align with state law. This language would align the City Charter with state law.
- Proposition H - Amendment of Section 4 of Article V of the City Charter to provide that polling places for elections are those designated by the City Council and shown in the notice of election in accordance with state law. This language would align the City Charter with state law.
- Proposition I - Amendment of Section 1 of Article VI of the City Charter to provide that the City Council shall meet at the dates and times approved by the City Council. The City Charter currently provides that City Council meets every week unless the weekly meeting is canceled by the Council. This amendment would align with the current City Council meeting schedule, which is approximately twice a month.
- Proposition J - Amendment of Section 2 of Article VI and Sections 1 and 4 of Article VII of the City Charter to provide for the annual election of a Deputy Mayor Pro Tempore each year to preside over meetings and to act in case of the failure, inability, or refusal of the Mayor and the Mayor Pro Tempore to act. Previously, the City Charter only referred to the appointment of a Mayor Pro Tem and not a Deputy Mayor Pro Tem. This amendment would align with the City Council’s current practice of appointing both of these Council positions. The Mayor Pro Tem and Deputy Mayor Pro Tem act in the absence or inability of the Mayor.
- Proposition K - Amendment of Section 1 of Article XIII of the City Charter to provide that the City may issue tax bonds, revenue bonds, funding and refunding bonds, economic development bonds, time warrants and other evidence of indebtedness for any purpose allowed by state law. This amendment would give the City Council full power to issue debt in accordance with state law.
- Proposition L - Amendment of Section 2 of Article XIII of the City Charter to provide that the City may issue time warrants as allowed by state law. Time warrants are an infrequently used type of debt. This amendment would align the process for issuing time warrants, if the City chose to do so, with state law.
The proposed bond program includes 27 projects across five propositions (categories) for a total of $200.8 million. Arlington voters will have an opportunity to vote separately for each of the propositions. The five propositions for voter consideration are:
Arlington voters can vote on seven proposed amendments to the City Charter. The City Council approved an ordinance at its Tuesday, Feb. 4 meeting to hold a special election on May 3, 2025, to amend various provisions in the City’s Charter. Arlington voters can vote “for” or “against” each proposition. The propositions will be listed on the ballot as:
