The obligation

What the contract requires.

“if the Project does not achieve ad valorem taxable values of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) on the tract by January 1, 2021”Executed agreement, p. 5
“to pay for sixty-five percent (65%) of the $779,914.00 cost of certain Public Improvements”Executed agreement, p. 5
The remedy

Future payments stop.

“the County may cease payments hereunder”Executed agreement, p. 6

This clause stops money not yet paid. It does not require what has already been received to be returned.

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.
