    We were informed by Tarrant County Public Health (TCPH) that there has been a confirmed West Nile Virus (WNV) positive mosquito sample collected from a testing site near you in the City of Fort Worth.

    A positive sample was collected in your area near Trap Site 10, 3209 Hemphill St, Fort Worth, TX 76110.

    It’s extremely important that our community continue to work together to reduce the mosquito population by removing mosquito habitats from their property and reminding their neighbors to do the same. 

    The most effective means of protection, even more than spraying, is to stay focused on the reduction of the mosquito population:

    • Please remove all standing water in empty flowerpots, pet bowls, outdoor toys, gutters, etc.
    • Maintain your swimming pool.
    • When you’re outdoors, remember to wear repellent that contains DEET.
    • Limit outdoor activities from dusk to dawn and wear long sleeves and pants when applicable.

    IMPORTANT UPDATES Continued vigilance when it comes to preventing the spread of mosquito viruses in our community is essential.

    • Since there have been West Nile Virus positive mosquitoes in your neighborhood, the City’s Environmental Services Department officers will be monitoring the area looking for standing water, litter and debris that could invite mosquitoes to breed and nest.
    • You can help by keeping your grass mowed, gutters cleaned, trees trimmed, and dried leaves raked.

    If there’s an issue with standing water at a location that is not city property, report it to the City’s Customer Care Center at 817-392-1234.

    Thank you so much for all your continued efforts.

    Environmental Services Department, City of Fort Worth

    We’re excited to share that the Riverside Business Association is officially registered with the City of Fort Worth. This is an important step in strengthening our connection to the City and ensuring Riverside businesses have a voice and access to resources that can support our district.

    As a registered business association, RBA now has access to several valuable City resources, including:

    • Early notifications of zoning, planning, and Board of Adjustment cases within ½ mile of our boundaries.
    • City communications and updates through the Community Engagement Office.
    • Training, technical assistance, and educational opportunities for our association and members.
    • Official recognition and mapping of the Riverside Business Association boundaries.
    • Greater access to information that can help us advocate for businesses, stay informed, and participate in decisions affecting Riverside.

    Resources for Riverside Businesses

    The City also provides several tools that can be useful to business owners and residents:

    Community Engagement Office – Stay informed about City initiatives, public meetings, zoning updates, educational programs, and opportunities to get involved. The City also offers programs such as the Mayor’s Neighborhood Awards, which may be an opportunity for Riverside businesses and organizations to receive recognition.

    One Address – Enter your business or property address to explore important information about your location and surrounding community.

    Customer Care – Need to report an issue involving streets, code enforcement, graffiti, stormwater, parking, solid waste, or other non-emergency City services? Fort Worth Customer Care can help.

    Why this matters:
    Being connected to the City gives the Riverside Business Association another avenue to advocate for our businesses, stay ahead of issues that affect our district, and help shape the future of Riverside.

    We’ll continue sharing relevant City information and opportunities with our members as they become available.
