The obligation

What the contract requires.

The remedy

What the contract says happens.

“The proposed economic incentives are performance based, and failure to meet annual benchmarks will result in pro-rata non-performance deductions of annual incentives granted, which can be earned back if the benchmark is met during the term of the Agreement.”Executed agreement, p. 8

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.
