FARMERS BRANCH, Texas -- City Council member Tim O'Hare hasn't given up on his ideas of making it harder for illegal immigrants to live and work in the city.
"Our residents are overwhelmingly in favor of passing these ordinances," he said. "I plan to do what our residents are asking me to do."
The City Council is expected to discuss potential ordinances regarding illegal immigration at its Nov. 13 meeting.
Just what will be presented by the city attorney next month is still unclear, but Mr. O'Hare wants the proposal to include suggestions he made in August, based on ordinances adopted by cities in other states. The suggestions included penalizing landlords and businesses that rent property to illegal immigrants or employ them.
