Texas: A Powerhouse of Growth and Opportunity The Strength of Texas Texas is experiencing an unprecedented boom in development and growth. This state, known for its vast landscapes and dynamic cities, offers opportunities across almost every sector. While cities like Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas often steal the spotlight, Texas is much more than its major urban centers. It is a vibrant ecosystem that fosters economic and social development. Laredo: A Key Player in Global Trade One city that exemplifies the strength and potential of Texas is Laredo. As a border city, Laredo, in conjunction with Nuevo Laredo, has become the most important trade port in the USA. Recent developments are set to further transform this region, making it a focal point for investors and businesses worldwide. A prime example is the announcement of the $7 billion 'Talise' project. This development aims to transform the area north of Laredo, providing new opportunities for growth and investment.

"As Northville Downs current location is now closed permanently, this may be the end of the harness horse racing gambling industry in Michigan. But Plymouth Township’s residents have expressed little sympathy for the industry. “A dying, harmful business is not what the community wants for the future of their township, and I hope that you’ve heard that,” Ban told the Board. “Live horse races account for less than 4% of wagers at this facility,” observed Adams, “ however it is still an industry with decades of decline and controversy. This gambling facility contravenes our master plan…Northville Downs holds accountability for thinking it was okay to force itself onto our community without assessing overall residential sentiment–frankly business 101.” What’s happened in Plymouth Township is similar to what’s happening in many other Michigan communities–communities facing Manufacturing 4.0 megasite development, in particular. In Big Rapids, both Green Charter Township’s Supervisor and Big Rapids Township’s Supervisor dug in their heels in favor of Gotion, in spite of rising community opposition to the project. Unlike Heise, however, BRT and GCT’s supervisors never acknowledged that Gotion was operating in bad faith, steamrolling over their constituents until they were recalled last November–by a landslide. Likewise, Marshall’s City Council continues to defend corporate interests, black moneyed lobbying groups, and economic developers above the will of the people. Marshall residents have continued to protest the Ford CATL EV megasite twice each week–even throughout the winter. As more developers and local boards go over the heads of local residents to strike deals for large, inappropriate projects, more residents are mobilizing against this overreach. Michigan’s local communities are realizing how critical their local governments are, and they’re getting involved. " #michiganbusiness #economicdevelopment #grassroots

Beginning with a $2 million investment to improve transportation infrastructure, the port was able to construct a much-needed egress to recruit companies like Amazon, Bluestem and Trex to the area, creating thousands of jobs for Arkansas residents. Additionally, with nearly a $500,000 investment to acquire land to relocate a Federal Aviation Administration VOR station away from the port – an obstacle preventing future growth and development – the Port of Little Rock will soon be able to market a 1,000-acre mega site for future businesses, which has already attracted several billion-dollar investments to Central Arkansas. This is a simple reminder why the work we do at DRA matters — to create jobs, build communities and improve lives! #InvestingintheDelta #Arkansas #EconomicDevelopment #Workforce
