How this decision moved

One dated line per check, oldest first. A line that says nothing changed means somebody looked and it had not.

  1. 2026-08-18

    Checked and unchanged. The amended abatement notice for Compal still posts on the City of Taylor newsflash.

  2. 2026-08-21

    Checked. The city's notice of consideration still stands and still names the amended and restated abatement with Compal and the Taylor Port Building renovation. What the council did with it on August 13th is unconfirmed, because the city posts no minutes for that meeting.

  3. 2026-08-25

    The comment window closed on August 13th.

  4. 2026-08-28

    Taylor's council took the amended abatement agreement with Compal Technology on August 13th and the notice period has run out. The city has published nothing since recording what the council did with it.

  5. 2026-09-01

    Taylor still publishes the amended Compal abatement notice, while the council's action remains absent from the city's published record.

  6. 2026-09-02

    The city's notice for the amended agreement is no longer posted where it was, so the council's action on it is unconfirmed.

  7. 2026-09-02

    The city's notice for the amended agreement is no longer posted and the address it stood at now returns nothing. The council's own agenda for August 13th carries the item, and the minutes the city published for that meeting are a scanned image that yields no text. What the council decided is on the record in a form nobody can read.

  8. 2026-09-05

    The city's notice address still answers with nothing, so the amended abatement notice is still not posted. The recorded council meeting is still the only public trace of the item.

  9. 2026-09-08

    The City of Taylor's notice of the amended Compal abatement is still gone from the address it was published to, and the address now answers with an error page. The council meeting it named has long passed and the city has still published no readable record of the outcome, so what Taylor decided remains unconfirmed.

  10. 2026-09-09

    The city's notice of the amended Compal abatement is still gone from the page that carried it. The council video of the meeting where it was taken up is still posted, so the action can still be watched even though the notice can't be read.

  11. 2026-09-12

    The city's notice of the amended Compal abatement is still gone from the page that carried it, and the page still answers not found. No outcome of the item has been published anywhere else.

  12. 2026-09-13

    The city's notice of the amended Compal abatement is still off the page that carried it, so what the council did with the amendment is still unconfirmed.

  13. 2026-09-16

    The city's notice of the amended abatement is gone from the city's own site and the address it sat at now answers nothing. What that notice said is therefore unconfirmed, and no replacement posting has appeared in its place.

  14. 2026-09-19

    The city's notice of the amended agreement is still not posted. The council's own video index still carries the item on the August 13th consent agenda and no outcome has been published either way. What the council did with it is unconfirmed.

  15. 2026-09-24

    The notice is still gone from the address it was posted to, and the city has since taken down its economic development notices page as well. The city's council meeting pages and archive carry no record of what the council decided.

  16. 2026-09-27

    The city's notice of the amended agreement is still not posted anywhere on its site. The council video index still lists the item, and no outcome has been published.

  17. 2026-09-30

    The city's notice of the amended agreement is still missing from its site. The council's video index still lists the item, and no outcome is published.

  18. 2026-10-03

    The city's notice of the amended Compal agreement is still missing from its site, and no outcome has been published. The council's video index sits on a host that bars automated readers.

  19. 2026-10-04

    The city's notice of the amended Compal agreement is still gone from its site, and no outcome of the council item has been published.

  20. 2026-10-07

    The city's notice of the amended Compal abatement is still off its site, and the meeting video bars automated readers, so where the abatement stands is unconfirmed.

  21. 2026-10-08

    Where the amended Compal abatement stands is still unconfirmed. The city's notice is still off its site and the meeting video still bars automated readers.

  22. 2026-10-09

    The published council minutes record unanimous approval of the amended Compal agreement at the August 13th meeting. The packet preserves the original incentives and performance obligations without adding incentives. The earlier notice quotations remain in the source history.

  23. 2026-10-12

    Taylor's minutes still record the council's unanimous vote on the amended Compal abatement, with the original incentives and performance terms kept.

  24. 2026-10-15

    Taylor's packet still records the unanimous vote on the amended Compal abatement. Two scanned pages of it yield no text, so their wording is unconfirmed.

  25. 2026-10-18

  29. 2026-11-01

  31. 2026-11-08

  32. 2026-11-12

    Checked against the council's own agenda record. The amended Compal abatement still reads as approved, with nothing reversing it.

  33. 2026-11-15

    The council packet still records the amended Compal agreement. Read again, its recital names Reinvestment Zone No. 10, and the record now says so.
