The south Dallas-based Texas state senator is too busy helping John Wiley Price shake down would be new businesses. In this case, it’s been The Allen Group, would-be developers of the Dallas Logistics Hub.
I had suspected Royce had a finger in the pie on Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert’s plan to delay The Allen Group’s work through forcing an 18-month master plan into place. At the time I first blogged about that, I didn’t know if Royce was looking for Perot money related to his boosterism of UNT-Dallas, or was engaged in JWP-type antics.
Well, now we know.
Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson gave a wrist slap to the two, but, as Jim Schuetze puts it, Allen Group CEO Richard Allen had to sign off on a Kafkaesque “confession” of being a bad boy for questioning Royce and JWP’s good intentions.
Psst, Richard Allen. Ask EBJ if she needs a Hudson’s Books warehouse at the Logistics Hub.
