Making a Difference
MPAC Celebrates 20 Years of Commitment to the City of Arlington!
MPAC Focus Groups for 2024
-
Monitor City Council (standing committee) - Members of this committee attend (or monitor) every work session and meeting of the Arlington City Council and distribute summary reports to MPAC members.
-
Community Connections - Our vision is an informed, engaged and connected city. Our mission is to provide public awareness and assistance to the citizen of Arlington.
-
Environmental, Beautification, Natural Resources - A strong City leadership with environmental education and community stewardship ensures preservation of natural resources and the beautification of Arlington. We will encourage current and new city council members to revisit and address the recommendations brought forth in the 2020 Enviromental Task Force Final report. We continue to lose valuable tree canopy and historic Cross Timbers to development. We will encourage city staff to review the ECE recommendations.
-
Traffic - As concerned citizens of Arlington, we have witnessed the growth and growing pains that comes with becoming a large city, specifically in the areas of traffic flow and traffic safety. As we continue our work to make Arlington a great place to live, work and play, we are concerned how the City of Arlington is addressing the increase in traffic congestion, traffic violations, and the impact multi-housing developments have on traffic flow and safety. MPAC is committed to working with City officials to address these challenges.
Who We Are...
We are a group of women leaders dedicated to making Arlington a better place to live, work, and play through our active involvement in local issues and elections. We contribute to public discourse about policy issues in our community. We identify and support specific issues and candidates who promote long term solutions, not short term fixes for Arlington. We do not engage in partisan politics, endorse or otherwise support partisan political affairs; but we do endorse candidates in municipal elections.
