Key takeaway Further details on the situation and the city's response are available from the Fort Worth Weekly.
FedEx has a history of not meeting its commitments in the Echo Heights neighborhood of Southeast Fort Worth . The company operated a trucking facility without a valid permit for five years, despite being located near a city code-compliance building. The city eventually issued a Conditional Use Permit, but FedEx has failed to fulfill its obligations to the community.
This permit is halfway through its two-year term. Further details on the situation and the city's response are available from the Fort Worth Weekly.
