RESOLUTION NO. 91-09
WHEREAS, the citizens of Tarrant County have always supported Carswell Air
Force Base and its many varied activities which have contributed to the defense of our
nation over many decades; and
WHEREAS, the City of Fort Worth and suburban cities around Carswell Air Force
Base have been tolerant of what some areas of the nation may consider noise pollution; and
WHEREAS, complaints of noise or other features of a military installation which
some may deem to be offensive have been non-existent in this entire area; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that Carswell Air Force Base, its operations and
its personnel are an integral part of our way of life in Tarrant County which would be sorely
missed if the facility were to be closed; and
WHEREAS, the financial impact of closing Carswell Air Force Base would be
devastating to the economy of North Central Texas; and
WHEREAS, all of the citizens in the area stand united in full support of this great
military facility, for reasons other than financial, and are firm in their support for expansion
of the base.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS, that:
1.
This Council does hereby go on record, on behalf of all its citizens, to pledge
continued support for Carswell Air Force Base and for its expansion.
2.
The Council further expresses its sincere gratitude to all of the many fine warriors
of Carswell Air Force Base who so gallantly gave of themselves in bringing victory in
"Operation Desert Storm".
