Some of those projects could include parks, soccer fields, an amphitheater or other types of sports and entertainment facilities.
In his “Harlingen 100 Plan,” Boswell has requested citizen participation and communication to decide how the money will be spent.
We hope that our readers will share their thoughts and ideas about the mayor’s initiative.
In addition to readers, we invite city officials to regularly check the blog and participate in this dialogue.
