The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is management’s report of financial operations to the Board of Trustees (the “Board”), taxpayers, grantor agencies, employees, the Texas Education Agency (“TEA”), and other interested parties. The government-wide financial statements in this report provide an overview of the District’s governmental activities, while detailed fund financial statements describe specific activities of each fund group used in accounting for the District’s financial transactions. This report was prepared by the District’s Finance Department in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and reporting standards as promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”). Responsibility for the accuracy of the data and completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the District. We believe that the data, as presented, is accurate in all material respects; that information is presented in a manner designed to set forth fairly the financial position and results of operations of the District as measured by the financial activity of its various funds; and that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the District’s financial activities have been included. In order to provide a reasonable basis for making these representations of responsibility, management of the District has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed to protect the District’s assets from loss, theft or misuse. Additionally, the internal control framework is designed to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the District’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the District’s comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable assurance rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. To the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. 1 The financial statements of the District have been audited by Null-Lairson, a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the District for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involves examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditors concluded based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion that the District’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditors’ report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report. The independent audit of the financial statements is part of a broader, federally mandated “Single Audit” designed to meet the special need of federal grantor agencies. The standards governing Single Audit engagements require the independent auditor to report

Copyright ©2016 by Rice Kinder Institute for Urban Research All rights reserved Houston in Flux: Understanding a Decade of Bayou City Development Executive Summary This report quantifies, visualizes and analyzes new construction and demolition in Harris County between 2005 and 2015. By showing both demolition and construction, this report spotlights the effects of economic booms and busts, illuminates the locations where development pressures are either most extreme or nonexistent and draws attention to communities rebuilding themselves within a decade. These changes are often discussed anecdotally in Houston, but quantifying construction and demolition offers a concrete and nuanced look at how these processes affect different parts of the region. Redevelopment, preservation, outward growth and gentrification can all be spotted in the maps included in the report and in the accompanying interactive online map (www.houstoninflux.com). The report and accompanying interactive component serve two purposes. First, the report is an example of forthcoming Kinder Institute “landscape” analyses that will establish a baseline understanding of important critical issues facing the Houston area. Second, the interactive map provides an accessible public tool that citizens, public entities, businesses and community-based organizations can utilize to better understand their respective communities.

  • Texas Register V.24 No.22
    This month’s front cover artwork: Artist: George A. Mondragon 10th Grade Fox Tech High School School children’s artwork has decorated the blank filler pages of the Texas Register since 1987. Teachers throughout the state submit the drawings for students in grades K- 12. The drawings dress up the otherwise gray pages of the Texas Register and introduce students to this obscure but important facet of state government. We will display artwork on the cover of each Texas Register. The artwork featured on the front cover is chosen at random. The artwork is published on what would otherwise be blank pages in the Texas Register. These blank pages are caused by the production process used to print the Texas Register. The artwork does not add additional pages to each issue and does not increase the cost of the Texas Register. For more information about the student art project, please call (800) 226-7199. Texas Register, ISSN 0362-4781, is published weekly, 52 times a year. Issues will be published by the Office of the Secretary of State, 1019 Brazos, Austin, Texas 78701. Subscription costs: printed, one year $150, six month $100. First Class mail subscriptions are available at a cost of $250 per year. Single copies of most issues for the current year are available at $10 per copy in printed format. Material in the Texas Register is the property of the State of Texas. However, it may be copied, reproduced, or republished by any person without permission of the Texas Register Director, provided no such republication shall bear the legend Texas Register or “Official” without the written permission of the director.

  • A Non-Profit Organization Promoting Peace Through Citizen Exchanges
    Friendship Force Houston Page 1 September 2012 A World Of Friends Is A World Of Peace. A Non-Profit Organization Promoting Peace through Citizen Exchanges WHAT IS FRIENDSHIP FORCE INTERNATIONAL? The Friendship Force is a non-profit organization sponsoring people-to-people exchanges between people in over fifty nations of the world. It brings people together through home stay exchanges – creating unforgettable experiences that build lasting bonds of friendship. As an Ambassador you share lifestyles in a private home in other countries for a week. In return, you may home host people from that nation or other nations to share your lifestyle. The ever-widening Friendship Force global network represents a powerful and growing force that can overcome differences between people and nations. President’s Corner And the nominations are… President: Joy Huntington Vice President: Marjo Ave Lallemant Secretary: Mary Adams Treasurer: Betty Spooner Jean Porter also agreed to stay as membership chair another year, and Don Formanek has agreed to bring the necessary paraphernalia for our potluck lunches – grateful is too weak a word to describe our appreciation for those two. The Board voted to reduce the number of our General Meetings to six next year, every other month rather than monthly. We will continue with our popular monthly International Dining and have two exchanges scheduled: Rapid City, Iowa in late February (they want to go to the rodeo) and Bandung, Indonesia November 14-21. Two lovely Chinese girls charmed us at the August meeting (see pictures on page 3). Mingjie Liu, who looks about fifteen, is the top nano technology student earning a PhD at Rice, which has the top nano technology department in the country, probably the world.
