Irving weighs DART interlocal agreement: billions at stake, council split over signing and ballot removal City staff outlined a six‑year DART ILA that would return GMP dollars (ramping to a combined 10% with RTC match) and proposed governance changes that reduce Dallas' vote share; councilmembers debated whether to accept the ILA and remove a withdrawal election from the ballot, citing funding returns (~$54–55M estimated for Irving over six years), governance gains and remaining concerns over audits, debt issuance and service restorations.
