ArlSpectator - Arlington, Texas

Arlington is a city where citizens are treated as spectators rather than players. The Arlington Spectator helps citizens know what is happening at city hall. Only the few on the in-house team are allowed to play ball in Arlington. We want citizens to be players in the game. We seek to encourage active taxpayer scorekeeping using the information in the Arlington Spectator.
