    Statement on Austin Bridge Batch Plant Development


    Dallas, Texas – Earlier this morning, Austin Industries has officially announced that they will stop
    their operations at the South Dallas plant on June 26th and will decommission their site within 120
    days.

    We have continued to work diligently with Austin Industries for the past fourteen months to find
    the most effective path forward while putting the health and safety of our community first. I am
    pleased that Austin Industries has agreed to expedite their timeline for this project. In my
    discussions since being on council, Austin Industries has shown a desire to be a good neighbor
    and have acknowledged a clear consensus in the Joppa community for heavy industry to no
    longer exist adjacent to their residential neighborhood. We have maintained a positive and
    productive partnership while determining the best path forward with their site. Through these
    discussions, the residents of Joppa are a top priority, which is why it is important that we keep
    strict scrutiny for this case to ensure that businesses in our district are able to flourish without
    compromising the safety and quality of life in our community.

    Despite misinformation and speculation being prevalent within in the past few months, we were
    successful on our ultimate goal in keeping our community safe. I look forward to continuing the
    working with Austin Industries on their relocation while maintaining priority to the residents whom
    I serve. I will continue to prioritize delivering results that directly right the wrongs of the past and
    improve the quality of life for Joppa residents.
