City contests Sapsco brief over Austin bonds and river authority

Austin attorneys prepared a city brief for Texas Attorney General Gerald Mann challenging the Guadalupe Flanco Hyer authority financing a 42 million dollar bond issue for purchasing utility properties and dam construction. The city argues the authority is charter restricted to water and power development and overreaches into San Antonio, proposing a plan with 35 million for buying properties and seven million for dams, while noting possible revenue from nonlocal sources. The case could reach the Supreme Court if Mann vetoes the proposed securities and the city cites potential net revenue allocations and property valuations.
