Episode 24- Financial Transparency in Dallas: Where is the Money Going?

from Let's Talk Local · host Sarah Zubiate Bennett

Why does the City of Dallas need over 195 pages of documents to detail its financial status? Are these lengthy documents actually providing the financial transparency we deserve, or do they just add to the confusion? It took a financial expert with over 35 years of experience over a YEAR to decode the information from City Hall and we’re digging into the reasons behind this complexity. Also, why do property values mysteriously rise when property taxes decrease? Does any of this add up? Tune in as Sarah also interviews the Executive Director of the Texas Government Accountability Association and takes a ride on the DART Rail for an afternoon at the Dallas Zoo.
