**MCBA Members Prepare to Vote for Their Community**

Dallas residents are getting political texts and phone calls urging them
to vote for the city's $1.25 billion bond proposal

in May, when turnout is typically low.

Voters must approve all 10 propositions for the full $1.25 billion in
bond money to be distributed.

* Nearly half of the money - $516.5 million in Proposition A - would
fund repairs to streets, sidewalks, bikeways and other transportation
projects.

* The rest - spread across nine other propositions - would create
new parks, build a new police training academy, develop affordable
housing, fix city libraries and update aging arts facilities.

**MCBA's Capital Bond Transparency Recommendations**

On Friday, March 8, MCBA President and CEO Louis Darrouzet submitted an
official letter containing seven recommendations for transparency and
expenditure as a response to the city's proposed $1.25 billion Capital
Bond. The city council's proposal should deeply concern the business
community and all Dallas taxpayers, as it will place the city in an
unsustainable financial position for years to come. Read the MCBA letter

**Apply for a Business Grant**

Our member companies are leaders in the DFW Metroplex because they've
invested in the community. Now, that investment just became easier
through Adopt-A-Block's new

**Cleanup Grant-**funding that will offset the material costs of
sponsorship and trash pickup.

Fill out a grant inquiry form
to get started.

About 231,000 voters in Dallas, Denton, Collin, and Tarrant Counties
have voted early in person this election, according to the Secretary of
State's office.

Dallas has the lowest turnout going into Super Tuesday - less than 5%
of voters have cast early ballots so far.

Texans will decide on their presidential candidates next week, as well
as candidates for the U.S. Senate and House, and state representatives.
