The repayment remedy

What happens if it is not met.

“Company shall be required to repay the County for any and all monies expended by the County under Section 5 of this Agreement within 30 days”Executed agreement, p. 4

Where a deadline above has passed, no public record exists of whether it was met — not in the Comptroller’s filings, nor in the local government’s own disclosures. That is not evidence of non-compliance. Texas requires nobody to record it.
