GEDCC Economic Insights & Legislative Leaders - Bart Bevers-Inspector General

May 28, 2025 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM (CDT)

Description

A Conversation with the Inspector General

Bart Bevers -- Inspector General (I) 

Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson introduced Bart Bevers, the city’s first-ever Inspector General, in 2022. According to Mayor Johnson, the Office of Inspector General will monitor, investigate, and prosecute potential ethics violations. The office was established as part of the ethics reforms proposed by the mayor and passed unanimously last year by the Dallas City Council. But who are the parties involved? How is it enforced? And how does one report ethics violations, fraud, or abuse?

Your registration is appreciated. Thank you!

Bart Bevers
Before joining the Office of Inspector General with the City of Dallas, Bart served for over 30 years in the fraud industry, first as a bank regulator working for the FSLIC/FDIC as an account officer dealing with the consequences of fraudulent loan practices. After law school Bart spent 9 years as an assistant district attorney specializing in prosecuting white-collar and economic criminal offenses. From there he worked 8 years with the HHSC-Office of Inspector General where he was appointed by Governor Rick Perry as Inspector General where he oversaw an office comprised of 655 employees in 31 cities. Bart then opened his own law practice where he operated for 10 years specializing in defending people accused of criminal offenses in state and federal court. Bart holds a B.A. in Psychology from S.M.U. where he attended on a football scholarship; a Doctor of Jurisprudence from the University of Tulsa; and is a graduate of the Governor’s Executive Development Program, LBJ School of Public Affairs, at the University of Texas. Bart has earned certifications including Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), Certified Fraud Specialist (CFS), Certified Inspector General (CIG), and Certified Public Manager (CPM). Bart has been married to his best friend (Gina) for 30 years. They have two children.

Part of the mission of the Chamber is to represent its members with issues involving federal, state, and local legislation and to provide useful information on the local economy. To accomplish this mission, the Legislative and Economic Growth Committee monitors business legislation and recommends positions to the Chamber and its Board of Directors. This committee also hosts forums to disseminate information to the members regarding political candidates and initiatives, as well as economic growth opportunities. These events, called Economic Insights & Legislative Leaders, are held the last Wednesday of the month at 5:30 p.m., except in certain months like June and December (see calendar for latest).
