Re: Ft. Worth Zoo 30.06 Ruling Letter

I'm interested in reading the letter. I looked at the management agreement and no where did I see anything about an exclusive sign agreement.

Nothing in the AG opinion tells the city to take the signs down. Why not? The city owns the land. The city should be made to take them down. Oh, I see. The city didn't POST the signs. The city gets off the hook by saying they don't have any control over the posting of signs at the zoo and the signs stay up. I'll bet if the zoo posted a sign under their exclusive agreement that prohibited minorities (or even illegal aliens), the city would probably fall over themselves to get the signs pulled down. The AG focused on who could be fined and not if the signs were prohibited on city PROPERTY. All a lessee has to do now is to get an exclusive agreement with the government entity on posting signs and the lessee can post what they want and the gvt. entity gets off and signs stay up.

I doubt anything will get "fixed" in the 2017 session. I wish it would, but I'm not holding my breath. My Grandmother used to say, "Poop in one hand and wish in the other and see which one gets filled first." Words of wisdom.

Re: Ft. Worth Zoo 30.06 Ruling Letter

This law has been turned into a farce. A precedent has been set. Thanks AG. :mad5

Fixed in 2017? Not going to hold my breath.
