Taxpayers in North Central Texas Are Finding Out How School Districts Have Created a Major Environmental Problem for Home and Landowners

The Following Counties in North Central Texas Are Included in the Federal Complaints Being Filed by Taxpayers, Bosque, Ellis, Falls, Hill, Limestone, McLennan and Navarro

The number of reasons and problems regarding how school districts in north central Texas have committed fraud and corruption regarding taxpayer money continues to expand. School superintendents and board members have operated outside their limits of authority as district officials. And individually they have violated the civil rights of taxpayers and citizens within their taxing jurisdiction. The Itasca ISD in Hill County is the first of several school districts where federal complaints have been filed in early 2025. Since that time multiple school districts in Hill and surrounding counties are involved in additional federal complaints and civil and criminal lawsuits being pursued. These legal challenges are in regard to lucrative tax abatement agreements executed by district officials and personnel without voter input or approval. The financial impact to home and landowners has put many home and landowners at risk of losing their homes. In Hill County homes and land have already been foreclosed and confiscated by the Itasca ISD.

Homeowners are starting to learn it is the local school district that allows their homes to be taken if property taxes are not paid. Homeowners are learning how school districts have put them in harm’s way of financial default when they executed lucrative tax abatement agreements with solar and wind farm companies. These agreements forfeit hundreds of millions of dollars of locally available tax revenues that could be used to relieve the property tax burden of residents. In addition to the financial impact of these agreements another very serious has been exposed with the solar farm pollution in Hill and surrounding counties. Across the US major issues and concerns have already made the news, abandoned solar and wind farms and equipment litter the surrounding landscape of the countryside leaving thousands of acres useless for agriculture or ranch use. In Texas there are multiple stockpiles of old wind turbine blades that have been sitting with no potential for recycling due to cost. Solar farm panels destroyed by storms litter thousands of acres of land. In south Texas a very large solar farm was damaged with thousands of solar panels broken and destroyed. These damaged panels allow heavy metal particles to fall to the ground and leaving it polluted for years into the future.

Forever Chemicals and Solar Farms

Another serious issue has surfaced related to solar farms and land leased by farmers and ranchers to solar farm owners and operators. In Johnson and Hill Counties the EPA and federal investigators have been involved in investigations regarding what are known as “Forever Chemicals” found in sewage sludge that has been applied to thousands of acres of farm and ranch land. These chemicals do not breakdown overtime and have ended up in creeks, rivers and lakes. In Hill County where solar farms have been constructed thousands of acres have been treated with chemicals using a base chemical known as Glyphosate. Glyphosate is found in many herbicides sold at box stores and agriculture Coops in Texas and include name brands such as Round Up, Gly-Star, Glyphosate Plus, RM-43 and Ranger Pro. The watershed and run off from areas where solar farms are built end up in creeks, streams and tributaries feeding into lakes and reservoirs that are sources to water treatment plants. In Hill County Lake Aquilla is a source of water to treatment plants for Hillsboro and Cleburne in Johnson County.

Home and landowners are now realizing the local school districts, superintendents and board of trustees have left them with a toxic environmental disaster. These home and landowners are joining forces to bring these issues to federal court for help and financial relief from the impact and financial losses due to poor judgement and short sided decisions by school officials that have no business providing lucrative tax abatements to an industry and owners that do not need it. Tens of thousands of prime farm and ranchland has been rendered useless as farm and ranch land that has been polluted with solar and wind farm equipment and debris and not to mention Forever Chemicals and heavy metals that present a hazardous waste environment in Hill County Texas.
