JUST IN FROM FortBendNow.com (MUD-ECO Update)-

Concerned Over Scam, MUD District Wants Out Of ECO Contract
by Bob Dunn, Nov 30, 07:42 pm

Pecan Grove Municipal Utility District board directors agreed Tuesday to end their operational contract with Sugar Land’s ECO Resources and put the contract up for bid.

The action was taken out of concern over a financial scam uncovered at ECO in September, MUD Board President Joe Taylor said Wednesday. ECO client manager Janet E. Trentham was fired after company officials discovered an embezzlement scheme in which more than $185,000 was taken from several MUDS that were ECO clients.

I guess I can't understand why taking 185k is not a criminal offense or is the company not pressing charges for some unknown reason?

Try this one:

Two duck hunters ran into one another early one morning. One of them noticed that the other’s dog was just sitting there, with absolutely no interest in retrieving any of the fowl his master had downed.

"What ‘s wrong with your dog?" the first hunter asked. "The last time I saw you two he was one of the best bird dogs I had ever seen!"

"Well," the other hunter replied, "His name is Lawyer. He used to run all over creation, working hard to get the job done. Then one day someone made the mistake of calling him Judge. Now all he does is sit on his ass and bark."

Taylor said (PGMUD President). “Really, what we want to do is tell (ECO) we are going to entertain bids, and there is some lack of confidence in their internal controls.”

--I think this says it all.

I wonder if other area MUDs are considering this option?

Wasn't Trentham on the Missouri City P&Z Committee?

Yes. She resigned recently but the company still hasn't filed any charges.
