CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A recently surfaced email from Corpus Christi’s city attorney is raising new questions about a $2 million incentive granted to a downtown hotel project — and whether city leaders were fully informed about key details before approving the funds.
At the center of the controversy is an altered screenshot, submitted as part of a developer’s application for Type B incentive funding for the Homewood Suites project at 301 N. Chaparral Street. The discrepancy was first flagged by rival developer Ajit David, who later filed a civil lawsuit against the city.
Now, an email obtained by KRIS 6 News appears to contradict sworn testimony given under oath by both City Manager Peter Zanoni and publc comments made by Mayor Paulette Guajardo. New email fuels City Hall dispute over
