Letter from the Mayor Letters from the Mayor and City Manager Letter from Mayor Kenneth Barr F ort Worth, Texas is an exciting place in which to live and work. As a Fort Worth native, I have witnessed our city's transformation into one of the leading American urban centers.
Fort Worth has a quality of life second to none.
Fort Worth today offers 21st century jobs that pay good wages and that have a bright future. We not only look to the future, we also draw from and preserve our past. We have secured more than 15,000 high-tech jobs for our city in the last five years. We have retooled our existing industries and retrained our workfoce. The Fort Worth Annual Report highlights what part the City of Fort Worth, on behalf of its citizens, has played in these efforts.
