Audit Good Homes Public Facility Corporation lease covenants before Dallas vote

Why now: The $16,837,803 in foregone general fund tax revenue at 6950 North Stemmons Freeway was the only disclosed financial figure across 15 Finance Committee agenda items on both January 26 and February 3, 2026, and the deal has not advanced from Draft status after either hearing.

What to do: Request the current draft 75-year lease between Dallas Public Facility Corporation and Good Homes Communities, LLC and verify that affordability covenants and clawback provisions satisfy Texas Government Code Chapter 303 requirements. The lease remains in Draft after two Committee on Finance briefings, meaning its terms are still open for revision — that window closes once the committee forwards a recommendation to full Council.

Act before: After City Council adoption vote on Good Homes lease

Pull Finance Committee memos on Good Homes North Stemmons lease

Why now: The Good Homes lease appeared as a Draft briefing item on both the January 26 and February 3, 2026 Finance Committee agendas without advancing, indicating active committee-level scrutiny of the $16,837,803 tax subsidy structure.

What to do: Request the agenda memoranda from both Committee on Finance hearings on the Good Homes Dallas Public Facility Corporation lease at 6950 North Stemmons Freeway to identify which deal terms are holding up committee advancement. Two consecutive briefings with no forward movement signals unresolved structural concerns — understanding what the committee is scrutinizing now sets the precedent for any similar Public Facility Corporation financing you pursue in Dallas.

Act before: After committee forwards recommendation to full Council

Request American Rescue Plan records for Good Homes double subsidy

Why now: The American Rescue Plan status report (26-387A) and the Good Homes PFC lease were listed together on both the January 26 and February 3, 2026 Committee on Finance agendas, and no public explanation has been given for the recurring pairing.

What to do: File a public records request for Dallas's American Rescue Plan fund allocation records and check whether Good Homes Communities, LLC or the 6950 North Stemmons Freeway project appears as a direct recipient. The ARP monthly status report and the Good Homes Public Facility Corporation lease co-appeared on the same Committee on Finance agenda twice — the public record raises but does not resolve whether this development draws from both $16,837,803 in foregone tax revenue and direct federal relief funds.

Act before: After records request response (typically 10 business days)

Engage Finance Committee before Good Homes North Stemmons lease advances

Why now: The Good Homes lease stalled in Draft status across both the January 26 and February 3, 2026 Finance Committee hearings, confirming that committee-level concerns — not a full Council vote — are the current and only decision point.

What to do: Identify the Committee on Finance chair and members and schedule direct engagement now — the Finance Committee, not the full City Council, controls the next procedural move on the Good Homes Public Facility Corporation lease at 6950 North Stemmons Freeway. Two hearings without advancement means members are actively deliberating, not rubber-stamping, and direct access closes once they forward a recommendation to the floor.

Act before: After committee forwards recommendation to full Council
