Bond Review Board launches bond‑election database but finds data gaps and weak enforcement for nonresponsive issuers

Rob Latshaw of the Bond Review Board of Texas told the pensions committee the board implemented House Bill 3526 and worked with the comptroller and TEA to create a bond‑election database. He said the controller’s IT group did much of the work, the board used contractors, and TEA used an outside vendor, and that a new web‑based form and spreadsheet fields are in production ahead of statutory deadlines.
