Why it matters
This agreement helps protect your tax dollars and ensures police, fire, and emergency workers are properly coordinated during World Cup events. Good planning means safer crowds, better traffic flow, and clearer responsibilities between city and county.
If this passes
City and county will work together on World Cup safety, splitting costs fairly and avoiding duplicate services. This could save tax money and improve emergency response coordination.
If this does not pass
No clear plan for sharing World Cup safety costs between city and county. This could lead to confused emergency response, wasted tax money, or gaps in security coverage.
