The obligation

What the contract requires.

“Minimum Employees (part time and full time) 90”Executed agreement, p. 5
“Minimum Investment $20,000,000”Executed agreement, p. 5
The repayment remedy

What happens if it is not met.

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.
