The San Patricio County Commissioners will hold a public hearing to designate the proposed site of the Exxon/SABIC petrochemical complex as a reinvestment zone. The area has been designated as a reinvestment zone eligible for tax abatements since August 2016. However, it was done with very little public notice and zero public comment. March 20th is a DO OVER! This is your chance to be heard. If the reinvestment zone is voted down by commissioners on March 20th, then Exxon/SABIC will NOT be eligible for tax abatements at that site.
If the Commissioners approve the “Reinvestment Zone” they will then vote on tax abatements for Exxon/SABIC at this very same meeting.
The site is too close to schools and homes. Please join us and wear red.
