Recent Reversal Of City Council On TX Pkwy TIRZ Is Welcome, Says Greyling!--

...Just into the "Draft Poats for Council" blog:

Greyling, a community leader and potential mayoral candidate in Missouri City has stated that he fully supports the cities reversal from 2006-2007 on the viability of a TIRZ (tax reinvestment zone) on Cartwright and Texas Parkway. "It is long past due and something as a reform group we have been working on for several years now. I think we are finally making progress after some pretty contested battles on this issue with some entrenched council members".

Further, I strongly agree with city leaders Rodney Griffin, Lou Hunter, Cynthia Gary (council district B) and Kevin Tunstall on the advantages of such a corridor reinvestment. "A much long over-due and needed addition to our city", stated Poats.

We will update this news as it comes in...
