May 2012
Report Number 12-034
Overall Conclusion
The Hidalgo County Water Improvement District No. 3 (District) has significant weaknesses in the management of its finances and operations. Those weaknesses exist largely because the District has not established a framework to provide for effective governance, oversight, and planning. Examples of specific weaknesses identified include a lack of financial controls; the absence of a formal, comprehensive, long-term master plan; noncompliance with procurement requirements; and noncompliance with certain requirements of the Texas Water Code.
