Texas Watchdog follows up on Vacar resignation
Texas Watchdog broke an interesting story today that follows up on the mysterious departure of Houston Airport System chief Richard Vacar a few weeks ago.
There are any number of items that stand out in what we imagine will be a first pass through public information that is finally being made available by the organization: 1) The length of time that Mayor White and/or aide Anthony Hall have been monitoring Vacar's travel and his outside deals; 2) Vacar's extravagant travel tastes; 3) Some of the relationships pursued by Vacar on his junkets, including trips to Libya; and 4) The amount of time Vacar spent on these side deals, as opposed to his day job overseeing the Houston Airport System. Further, the story only hints at Vacar's relationship with spinoffs apparently created to facilitate some of these side deals.
We'll be looking forward to further investigation into all of the above by Texas Watchdog (and any other local media wishing to pursue the story beyond this passive bit of questioning).
