WHEREAS, the Fort Worth City Council is greatly concerned
for the safety of the children of the City; and,
WHEREAS, the Fort Worth City Council feels there are alternate
ways to celebrate Halloween without taking from the fun and tradition
of this occasion: NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT WORTH,
TEXAS:
That the Fort Worth City Council encourage organized activities
for children on Halloween night, October 31, by the City of Fort Worth,
the Fort Worth Independent School District, local churches, local
businesses and civic organizations, and by the various neighborhoods
throughout the City;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Fort Worth City Council
discourage parents from allowing their children to go door-to-door
"Trick or Treating", but instead encourage and get involved in the
organized activities suggested. The City Council further encourages
those households who normally make "treats" available to instead
support the organized activities in their area both financially and
P•w. actively.
