[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] <a href="http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/metropolitan/3239024">And it's already beginning</a>. Short version: Freeport wants to build a marina along Old Brazos River to serve luxury yachts. The property belongs to two seafood companies, and the city has been fighting with those companies about getting the land for some time now. The city hopes that by building a marina, hotels and restaurants will pour into the area to spur economic development in a city that has little businesses in its jurisdiction. In short, it's kicking out two businesses that contribute heavily to their commercial taxes in favor of what could end up being a pipe dream. Now that the Supreme Court has ruled in favor of New London, Freeport is going ahead with preparing the legal documents necessary to seize the property. [/QB][/QUOTE]
