10 YEAR FLASHBACK: Heiligenstein and Peters Tricking Taxpayers.

Back in 1996, Mike "Deadbeat" Heiligenstein, Williamson County Commissioner, now Executive Director of the CTRMA, and Convicted Criminal Pete Peters were spending Wilco Tax dollars on a politicly slanted mailer to trick Wilco taxpayers. The more tax dollars that are spent somehow always equals self benefit for these freeway tolling con men. As reported in the decade old Statesman article from 11/1996:

"Some people thought the brochure was a political ad. Georgetown resident Nancy Rister wanted to know who paid for the announcement, which didn't say how it was financed. "It's hard to believe this is just an informational piece -- it seems more promotional,'' Rister said Thursday. "I have a hard time accepting them spending taxpayer money to try and convince taxpayers to increase their taxes even more.''"
