The repayment remedy

What happens if it is not met.

“In the event a shortfall by Messer, as described in Sections 3.B. and 3.C. or other default by Messer that results in the termination of the Agreement by the County, Messer shall repay all grant funds paid by the County to Messer for the five (5) years prior to the termination.”Executed agreement, p. 3

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.
