LUBBOCK (Lubbock Avalanche Journal) – Hoping
to entice major corporations to bring their businesses,
the Lubbock Economic Development Alliance will spend
more than $13 million on utilities, paving and other
improvements to a business park and rail port north of
the city.
The majority of the construction project for the utilities
was awarded to Duinick Brothers Inc. Construction of Roanoke,
Texas. Construction should begin this month.
Board director Gary Lawrence thought businesses would not
begin looking at Lubbock until at least a year after the
projects were completed, but companies such as O’Reilly
Automotive Inc. are already planning construction.
