On August 23, the Fort Worth Chamber will partner with Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare for the annual State of the County address. It’s an exciting time to be in Tarrant County, which has routinely been one of the fastest growing counties in the nation over the past several years. Judge O’Hare will cover a range of topics from Tarrant County’s tax rate and annual budget to success stories and challenges that remain ahead.
Judge O’Hare will touch on several components of the Fort Worth Chamber’s state and local legislative priorities, such as mental health programs, public safety, and educational opportunities. Each of these have an important connection to business prosperity in Tarrant County and are issues the Fort Worth Chamber hopes to engage with to continue supporting a pro-business climate across the region.
We look forward to hearing Judge O’Hare’s insights on the top issues facing Tarrant County, and we hope you will be able to join us for this important address. The luncheon is set for Friday, August 23 at the Worthington Renaissance from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. You can register online or contact the Fort Worth Chamber for sponsorship opportunities.
