EXHIBIT A TRVA Board Financial Report Fraud Trial

I saw that which you see above, on Facebook, along with text below commenting on what you see above, with what you see above being EXHIBIT A: TRVA Board Financial Report.

EXHIBIT A?

An exhibit in a criminal fraud type trial? Well, it's about time. Who brought this to trial? The victims of eminent domain abuse who had their property stolen for this Boondoggle which by now obviously has had nothing to do with property being taken for the public good? Because clearly there was no eminent need to take property, what with little having come to fruition with this imaginary flood control scheme where there has been no flooding for well over half a century.

And now that aforementioned comment about that EXHIBIT A you see above...

More than $380 million in taxpayer money has been spent on Kay Granger’s Fort Worth development boondoggle.

According to the agency responsible for the project (TRVA), which is run by Granger's son J.D., only 1 aspect of the project is 100% complete; the design.

After 15 years, and $380 million, the only thing they've completed is the design? Are you serious?

The water district (TRWD) apparently loaned $200 million to the TRVA--and got voters to approve another $250 million in bond debt last year--to keep it going while Granger works to get $600 million more in federal pork.

The price tag started out at $435 million in 2006, and has since ballooned to $1.16 BILLION.

Does anyone believe this will be completed in 2028, or that the cost will not increase...again?

My guess is the price tag will be $2 billion when the dust settles in 10 years.

I dunno who Ross Kecseg is, but the name sounds familiar. Mr. Kecseg certainly seems to have a firm grasp of the absurdity of what has become America's Dumbest Boondoggle, soon to enter its third decade.

That TRVA Financial Report does not answer questions I have asked many times. Questions like how much did the TRVA spend on its first failure, the harbinger of the Boondoggle to come, that being the Cowtown Wakepark.

How much has the TRVA spent on all its various propaganda websites?

How much has the TRVA spent on all its ridiculous propaganda signage?

How much has the TRVA spent on its year after year of absurd quarterly propaganda mailers?

How much has the TRVA spent on all its various junkets, including even relatively cheap junkets, such as the imaginary fact finding junket taken by J.D. and his now wife which required an overnight stay in a Dallas hotel, billed as an expense to the TRVA.

How much has the TRVA spent on things like its imaginary music venue with its imaginary pavilion, where the TRVA holds events, such as inner tube floats? How much have those events cost? Where is any of this accounted for in this TRVA Board Financial Report?

How much did the TRVA spend on J.D. Granger's beer hall, named the Shack, which is part of that sprawling imaginary Panther Island music venue?

Are all those expenses somehow accounted for somewhere in the items listed in EXHIBIT A? I can think of a few dozen inquiring minds who would like answers...
