Memorial Day
Most city offices, including City Hall, will be closed Monday, May 29, for the Memorial Day holiday. Emergency services will be available as usual.
Residents and visitors want effective, accurate and timely information, as well as ways to share thoughts and concerns with city employees, department leaders and elected officials. The Communications and Public Engagement Department (CPE) helps to make that happen.
The CPE team works with a variety of stakeholders to share city messages across a variety of communications channels. They also take feedback and ideas from the community back to city officials to create an inclusive and responsive city government.
The CPE office coordinates media relations activities and handles media inquiries for the City of Fort Worth. Members of the media can submit inquiries online, obtain information from the City News e-newsletter and download recent city council presentations
The Community Engagement team works with residents on building neighborhood capacity and the developing communication networks of city stakeholders. These include faith-based groups, neighborhood associations, schools and nonprofit organizations. Effective communications with these different audiences is vital to the success of city initiatives and programs.
Fort Worth TV, in partnership with the community, produces diverse and innovative programs for and about Fort Worth. Watch presentations and view programming either online, on TV or YouTube. Recordings are cataloged and can be found online.
