Summary

TTX Company is getting a $152,000 boost from the Lubbock Economic Development Alliance to cover a gas line extension in Slaton—part of their expansion that wasn’t originally planned. While Lubbock Mayor Mark McBrayer worries about funds leaving city limits, LEDA’s Chris Rankin highlights the $22 million in projected wages over a decade. Lubbock County Commissioners skipped a tax abatement vote, but still see the grant as a win, with a $34 million facility adding to the tax base. It’s a local debate over where to invest—but the goal remains clear: grow the economy and create jobs for everyone.
