TDLR License Renewal
Greetings,
Between January 10 and January 13, 2011, the enforcement division of the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) conducted an undercover sting operation at 5245 N 23rd St, McAllen, TX 78504. The sting operation was an attempt to identify, locate and prosecute unlicensed air conditioning, electrical and electrical sign contractors in the McAllen and Valley areas. The Sting was a huge success with 40 complaints/unlicensed contractors caught during the undercover sting.
Very sincere thanks to Mike Egan of HIWAY NEON SIGN CO for his support and providing us dozens of leads and Joe Sakulenzki, owner of commercial buildings for providing us the sting location. Please see the video clip below. It is great story and eye opening.
Also, a very sincere thanks to the staff of KRGV/Channel 5 News of Rio Grande Valley, Executive Producer, Jenny Martinez, and Reporter, Erica Proffer. They are simply the best.
