O'Hare was sworn into office on Jan. 1.can set an example for other counties, municipalities, school districts to follow. You absolutely can tighten your belts. You absolutely can spend less money if you bring some strong business mindset, innovation, new ideas, ways of thinking. That's hopefully what I'll bring to the court," O'Hare told NBC 5 Tuesday.
"I think you have to watch every tax dollar like a hawk. I think sometimes in government, is you have too many people that don't truly understand whose money it is," he said."You can have some pretty free spending going on. In Tarrant County, specifically, over the last 4-6 years, they have spent money in county government like wildfire. We want to bring some fiscal restraint in.
The two new commissioners on the court are Alisa Simmons representing Precinct 2 and Manny Ramirez representing Precinct 4. Ramirez, who served as president of the Fort Worth Police Officers Association, said one of the issues he'd like to address immediately is how remaining American Rescue Plan dollars are spent. His ideas include projects to support public safety and the community in general.
