Fort Worth’s most civically engaged appear to be giving their seal of approval to the city’s request to borrow $845 million for roads, parks, affordable housing, and a new animal shelter.

Less than 10% of registered voters cast ballots county wide, according to early unofficial results from Tarrant County.

This largest bond package in the city’s history comes four years after the previous record holder when voters approved a $560 million bond package in 2022.

In the 2026 package, Proposition A, which mainly covers road improvements, is $511 million.

This year’s bond package is also the first time the city has asked voters to support a bond to increase the city’s supply of affordable housing.

The $10 million in Proposition D will go to support affordable housing projects through measures that could lower development costs.

Here are the early unofficial results from Tarrant County as of 6:59 p.m.

Proposition A | Streets and Mobility Infrastructure | $511,480,700

For: 59.22%

Against: 40.78%
