Anyone who wants to spend a bit of their memorial day weekend and catches up in the town hall of Dallas came in the right place.

The city center deserves a lot of attention last week. Between the major update of public security of the city center and the control over how much the renovation of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center will cost, the future of the city center in the crossroads seems to be.

In other messages, the town hall received some praise for the cultivation of the Dallas Park system, and criminals are already trying to use the use of Planning & Development Department (PDD) of the online approval platform.

We have the following:

Finally, official measures are taken in the city center of crimes

In cooperation with the stakeholders in downtown Dallas, Inc. and the neighborhood, the officials will try to present criminal activity and homelessness in the central business district before the World Cup next summer.

According to reports, more police are being deployed in the city center, and the efforts to hide the homeless in the city center The Dallas Morning News.

The pivot point for a more aggressive enforcement follows one from the city center of Dallas, commissioned by Dallas, which has had a significant increase in crime and disorder in the neighborhood in recent years, which has led to a reduction in real estate values ​​and slowing down growth.

“If this trend continues, the cascading effects will continue and quickly undermine the value and the city of Dallas exceeded far beyond its core of the city center,” the study said.

There is also the impending threat from the move of companies from the city center, which AT&T allegedly consider. The company currently has its headquarters in the Whitacre Tower in the South Akard Street.

Around 130 officials from the police authority in Dallas are assigned to the central business district and become more visible.

“You will see assembled patrols, more officers on motorcycles, we will have more personal contact with people in the city center,” said DPD Maj. John Madison, who was appointed to lead the efforts, reported WFAA.

However, it costs a lot, it costs if it costs

The employees in the town hall seem to have no fixed idea of ​​how much it will ultimately cost to renovate the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center.

On Wednesday, the employees informed Dallas' city council about the latest designs for the new congress center, which is expected to revive the city center. During the session, however, the council members examined the city's finances in connection with the project.

In an informative moment, the council member Jesse Moreno (District 2) asked what the budget was for the congress center. Rosa Fleming, director of Convention & Event Services, replied: “So we never use the word costs or the budget.”

She further explained how the numbers in previous project presentations actually represent potential income and bond collar from which the city could pay for the congress center. However, the presentation on Wednesday had an actual cost area of ​​3.3 to 3.5 billion US dollars, much more than the debt creation of $ 2.1 billion that the city estimated in 2022.

“We always said that we had to come to schematic design and programming where we are now to bring them all of an actual cost number,” she said.

The officials also increased the outstanding debts in connection with the current congress center and the Omni Hotel, which corresponds to almost 1 billion US dollars.

The city's financial situation is not in the best form, since the employees forecast a budget deficit of 7 million US dollars next year. Fiscal Hawks like the council member Cara Mendelsohn (District 12) sparked the alarm about how much the city spends every year and at the same time does not take care of its assets on the real estate front.

“We have to budget to take care of these systems before they fail, and that means that we have to give up some other things,” she said.

During the meeting, the employees informed the council members that they had to record a bridge loan of 1 billion US dollars in order to cover the costs associated with the preparation of the Congress Center for the World Cup.

Phishing fraud chew packs from the start of Dallasnow

Cybercriminals have apparently recorded wind of PDD's start of Dallasnow and send phishing -e emails to unsuspecting people who may register a project on the online platform.

The e -mails are as a PDD employee as an identity and ask the recipients to check their account or payment information. They contain “urgent language” and contain links or attachments that could infect computers with harmful software.

PDD warns Dallasnow users to deal with e -mails who claim to come from the department, especially when the Send -e -Mail address ends in something other than @dallas.gov.

“If in doubt, contact us directly via our official website or customer support line at 214,948,4480,” said PDD. “If you receive a suspect e -mail that claims to be from us, please forward it to your company IT security and delete it immediately.”

So welcome Dallasnow from stakeholders in the development community that want services in the town hall like the 21st century, there are some disadvantages of modern society. Phishing frauds are one of them.
