If you've ever wondered how your elected leaders in Dallas butter their bread, here's your chance to find out. Texas Watchdog has posted below the 2009 personal financial disclosure forms for the Dallas mayor and city council as well as the Dallas County commissioners.
The disclosures, required by state law, show sources of income, real estate holdings and stocks and bonds. They can be useful in figuring out whether an elected official is acting in the interest of the people or his pocketbook.
