Legal Challenges by Taxpayers in Texas Underway
Its official now! The State Comptroller’s Office punted regarding the collection of tax receipts and the validity of Chapter 313 Agreements signed by school districts in six counties in the North Cental Texas area. Taxpayers have been waiting on a response from Glenn Hegar’s office regarding multiple issues found with the application and contracts signed by over a dozen school districts in Texas located in Bosque, Ellis, Hill, Limestone, McLennan and Navarro Counties. School districts and Central Appraisal districts and public officials and school board members will bear the brunt of the complaints filed by taxpayers. It was the position of taxpayers the State of Texas would throw school districts under the bus regarding the fraud and corruption that has been exposed regarding tax abatement contracts with solar farm owners and operators totaling $5.2 billion dollars. School districts have forfeited over $1.0 billion dollars of available tax revenues to school districts over a twenty-five-year period. Legal challenges by taxpayers in Hill County Texas are underway to expose and stop fraud and corruption by school district administrators and board members regarding taxpayers’ rights under the US Constitution. Lawyers and Consultants have made over $2.5 million dollars in fees while putting taxpayers on the hook again for property tax increases in several north central Texas school districts. Based on the letter and response from State Comptroller Glenn Hegar’s office taxpayers can move forward with their complaints regarding the misappropriation of public funds and financial conduct that has impacted the taxpayers in several school districts. The first complaints being filed involve the Itasca ISD in Hill County. Taxpayers in other counties and school districts are finding out now what has happened in their districts and following the lead of taxpayers in Hill County.

Fraud and Corruption
Updated – How Districts are Involved
Multiple criminal complaints have been filed with the DOJ and SEC by taxpayers against school districts in Texas that have been exposed for fraud and corruption relating to school finance and how taxpayers’ money has been spent. For the past two decades school districts have violated key tenants of the law, rules and statutes that govern how school districts are to use taxpayer funds and in regard to how bond referendum and packages are put forth by school districts and school officials. The bond fraud and corruption are in the hundreds of billions of dollars and has put taxpayers in financial distress and in many cases bankruptcy. Many homeowners in Texas have lost their homes due to the actions and conduct by school officials and board members.
