Its rare anymore that you can get something or nothing. Butgetting a good deal is something that never goes out o style.Whether youre serving taxpayers, shareholders or yoursel,the benets o running an ecient, value-or-money operationare the common denominator.
In our Texas Risingcover story, read how the FinancialAllocation Study o exas (FAS) has looked at how spendingmatches up with academic progress in exas public schools and districts. Te reportalso details best practices that other schools can emulate to operate more ecientlyand increase their eectiveness.
Successul government means doing the best job with the resources given us. Veribest
ISD near San Angelo proves you dont have to be big to be scally transparent and ndsavings. It is among more than 200 exas local governments that have achieved theComptrollers Gold Leadership Circle designation.
We hear plenty about incentives that help new businesses get o t he ground. But theyarent always necessary thanks to the initiative o some exans. Luis Morales took $500and started an artisan ood business in San Antonio, selling to restaurants and directlyto consumers at weekly ar mers markets. We hear, too, rom armers market operatorsabout the keys to successul selling.
Given the tight nancial times acing state government today, the Comptrollers ocehas decided to make the leap to online-only publications. Well be able to save on printingand mailing costs while still providing you with the thoughtul and inormativearticles youve come to expect. I hope youll take the time to subscribe to our publicationsemail list, so we can let you know when we publish new content telling you about scaltransparency, government procurement, economic development and anything else thatcan help local governments be ecient and promote investment in you r communities.See you online!

Mike Reissig, associate deputy comptroller,explains why the Texas economy is resilient.
Te recent recession was a turbulent ti me or
economies around the world and or exas.
However, the housing sector, oil and gasproduction, and a helpul business environmenthelped exas get through relatively better thanmost other states, and will boost the stateseconomy going orward.
Why did the housing bubble notaect Texas like other states?
Te main thing was that while housing values were increasingall across the nation, what you ound in exas was that a much
higher percentage o the increase o thevalue o houses was as aresult o underlying strength in the economy and not o thehousing bubble. So that as our values increased, within thatincrease was legitimate demand rom people moving up to biggerhouses, who had gotten some o the new jobs that were createdin the state.
Did the energy sector contribute to the lesserTexas recession?Teres a misperception out there that the state wouldtransition rom being an oil and gas economy to being ahigh-tech economy. But what really happened was that you
had the oil and gas economy still being a big part o our economy,
and we added a large high-tech economy. And so the oil and gaseconomy, which sometimes tends to be a little counter-cyclicalcompared to the rest o the nation, actually will help us, will buerus in weak economic times. It is kind o like having a portolio oinvestments, part o which tends to be counter-cyclical. Tats whatthe oil and gas sector does or us now.
What actors contribute to Texas reputation ashaving an environment or success?Labor costs are relatively low in the state. axes are low inthe state compared to other parts o the nation. We have alot o available land. We put in place tort reorm that has
had a benecial impact on business in the state. Weve really createdan environment that is going to help us signicantly over the comingdecade and even urther. I would expect our economic perormancecompared to the rest o the nation is going to continue to be positiveor the oreseeable uture.

For ve years, Veribest Independent School District (ISD)has published its budgets, nancial reports, checkregisters, tax statements and board meetingminutes online.
Veribest was the 13th school district awarded a Gold Texas
Comptroller Leadership Circle designation in recognition o its
demonstrated commitment to transparency. The gold seal is
eatured on the ISD website, along with a public statement on
the benets o transparency.
Veribests taxpayers, employees and students can learn
how the district spends its budget by accessing the monthly
check register online.
Opening the checkbook to the public makes the district
think twice about how it spends its money, says Bill Merry,director o technology. Merry and Business Manager Denise
Dusek maintain high transparency standards by publishing
current data in a timely ashion.
Merry believes that Veribest ISDs unique annual community
workshop is the key to public condence in the districts
nancial decisions.
Our March workshops lay it all out on the table, he says.
During the workshops, board members, administrative staf,
educators, students and parents examine the budget and
decide how to have the greatest educational impact on stud
and teachers.
Because the community collectively decides what its nan
priorities should be, when a community member sees an init
being implemented, he or she doesnt wonder who came up w
it, Merry says. He or she says, I was a part o this process.
Finding ways to save while providing students with the be
technology possible has been a VISD priority and is direc
attributable to transparency. Merry estimates that by emp
ing thin client technology and saving on hardware, mach
replacements and work equipment, Veribest has saved an
estimated $765,000 in classroom technology over the
past six years.
When you can demonstrate these savings, he says, you a
truly at the leading edge o nancial transparency.

documents at www.veribestisd.net.

Te most eective orm o government stretches the taxdollars it collects as ar as it possibly can. For exas schooldistricts, not only is that wise, it is imperative.
Te 2009 exas Legislature charged the Comptrollerwith identiying school districts that combine academicachievement with cost-eective operations in eect, todetermine which districts are providing a good return onexans investment. Te Financial Allocation Study oexas (FAS) examines how public schools and districtsspend those dollars compared to scal peers o up to 40other districts or campuses that operate in similar costenvironments, based on actors that aect the cost oproviding education, such as regional wages and studentcharacteristics. It also scores the districts eectiveness inimproving its students perormance in math and reading/English language arts relative to those expenditures.
On the academic side, we looked at student academicprogress, rather than absolute levels o achievement, saysom Currah, FASs research lead.
Te FAS report provides an array o b est practicesrom the most ecient and eective school districts thatcan be used by other districts wishing to improve theiroperations. It also oers a series o Comptroller recom-mendations that could save millions o dollars.
Some of the biggest and most easily identifiable savings can come from purchasing.
In ar West exas, the 62,000-student El Paso ISD employsa variety o group purchasing arrangements, includingthe exas A ssociation o School Boards BuyBoard, theexas Procurement and Support Services-administeredState o exas CO-OP and exas Multiple Award Schedule(XMAS) and Education Services Center cooperatives.All combined, El Paso ISD estimates about $1 millionannual procurement savings.
Construction Savings:
Many exas districts, particularly in suburban areas, areconstantly trying to stay ahead o population growth.
Some have realized that when theyve ound a good desior a campus, they can save money by reusing those plan
Construction savings arent just conned to educatiobuildings. Cedar Hill ISDs administration and the city shathe Cedar Hill Government Center, saving the school distrabout $150,000 per year in operational costs compared withe ormer school building previously used or administratioand making a convenient location or citizens to transact businwith both entities. According to the city, the $27.5 milliogovernment center saved about $4 million over building twseparate acilities to serve the needs o the 8,200-studentschool district and 45,000-resident city.
Watch online how Cedar Hill has saved at www.FASTexas.org.
Among the recommendations that could createpotential savings:
Change the 22-student limit for K-4 classrooms to an average
class size o 22, permitting school districts the fexibility to workwith their teachers to sta their classrooms in a mannerconsistent with local conditions and preerences withoutsacricing student perormance.
Adopt electronic textbooks.
Allow school districts to publish public notices electronically.
Reduce school energy spending.
To read all the recommendations and fnd out how much money Texas school
districts could potentially save, view the FAST report at www.FASTexas.org.

The Comptroller recently released the
2008-09 Economic DevelopmentCorporation Report, detailing the
activities o EDCs in cities
across Texas.
Since 1989, the Development
Corporation Act has allowed cities
to orm Type A or Type B economic
development corporation (EDC) unded by a
local option sales tax, to attract businesses and create
job opportunities or their residents. A board o directors
appointed by its city council administers each EDC.
In 2008, the 666 EDCs generated $555.5 million in sales
tax revenue or local economic development activities.This sales tax continues to be the states primary local
revenue source or economic development, although EDCs
can also generate revenue rom bond, loans, grants and
other sources. The EDCs total revenue rom all sources was
$832.5 million. The fscal 2009 total slipped to $538.2 million
or the 680 EDCs operating in 2009, and total EDC revenues
declined to $675.3 million, mainly resulting rom sharp
declines in bond proceeds and loans.
State law specifes a wide variety o project types that EDCs
can und. In 2008 and 2009, the leading expenditure
category was capital projects $500 million or capital
expenditures and more than $284 million in debt serviceto fnance them. These include transportation systems,
such as roads and overpasses, as well as b usiness
inrastructure such as utilities.
EDCs also spend more than $110 million each year providing
direct business incentives to encourage businesses to
locate or expand their operations in a Texas community
instead o another state or country. For example, Seguin
incentivized Caterpillar to relocate one o its primary
assembly plants to the city. The EDC partnered with
Seguin Independent School District, Guadalupe
County, the Texas Enterprise Fund and private partners
to create an incentive package to attract the statessecond largest economic development project, in
terms o job creation and investment, in fscal 2008-09.
The recent recession had little impact on the overall
fnancial health o EDCs during fscal 2008-09. EDCs
reported that cash reserves available or economic
development projects declined only 4 percent during
the biennium to $853.9 million.

Greer identies departmental services,evaluates their utility and nds the most cost-eectiveway to provide them.
During scal 2010, Farmers Branch saw a 14 percentdecline in taxable sales rom the previous year. Facing abudget reduction, city leaders opted to cut costs, notraise property taxes.

The obstacle of a tiny budget wasnt too to overcome for Humble House Foods foLuis Morales. by David Bloom
With $500 and an inability to take no or an
answer, San Antonio ood cratsman, Luis
Morales has turned a passion into a successul
business venture.But the whole process o getting licensedto operate a ood business is almost designedto discourage anyone rom starting a business,Morales says.
Undaunted, Morales read every book hecould nd about exas ood laws and howto get an operation up and running.
In the summer o 2009, Humble HouseFoods sub-leased a 10-oot by 12-oot roomrom a local coee roaster. With the basicingredients or their cheeses and an investment
each others economic development activities.
New Braunels worked closely with Seguin and the new
Caterpillar plant, providing work orce training to hundreds o
workers at the Alamo Colleges Central Texas Technology Center.
That partnership was very important and beneted the entire
region, says Kate Silvas, assistant director or Seguin EDC. I would
encourage other communities to think outside o the box o their
political jurisdictions and reach out to one another.
Schertz Economic Development Corporation leaders were
asked to join the alliance because o the recent urry o new
businesses. Schertzs strategic location and increasing number o
warehouse and distribution centers made it a natural t, Brockman
says. The recent announcements that spurred the three cities
to ormalize the alliance include Sysco Foods new 635,000-
square-oot distribution center in Schertz that is expected to
be completed in late 2011, Caterpillars new Schertz plant that
will supply its recently opened Seguin acility, and Baptist Health
Systems planned hospital in north New Braunels.
We thought that it made sense, says Jef Jewell, Schertzs
economic development director. It makes us more competitive on
a wider scale. We need to be taking original approaches with
economic development because companies dont just have
options within the United States.
More or Less Silvas says the Seguin EDC has used thetri-city partnership to expand its outreach eforts without
increasing its budget.
As an alliance, the three cities can better aford to
participate in domestic and international trade missions
We are maximizing our monetary resources the best
that we can, Brockman says. Well grow wealthier
individual communities and a wealthier region. That kind
o partnership is invaluable.

Three cities on the northwestern outskirts o San Antoniohave pooled their economic development resources in aneort to become a regional recruiting powerhouse.
Were going to compete with the big cities or new business, but
at the same time we are providing a niche or businesses that are
looking to locate somewhere outside o San Antonio or Austin,
says Rusty Brockman, director o economic development or the
Greater New Braunels Chamber o Commerce.
Working Together In July 2010, New Braunels, Schertz and
Seguin economic development ocials signed a contract creating
the 10/35 Economic Development Alliance, agreeing to combine
certain economic development eforts and providing a regional
marketing strategy or attracting more business prospects. The
alliance stems rom the three cities proximity and access to
Interstates 10 and 35.
