At the next PEDC meeting he will bring to <br />the Board a proposed resolution to support Proposition 15 which will allow <br />TxDOT to issue bonds to finance highwav construction. He said this is <br />something that PEDC has promoted to retain and attract manufacturers <br />and warehouse distribution companies. <br />Mr. Vest reported that he and Eric entertained a prospect today for the <br />Oliver Rubber Building. He said it is a good company and project and felt <br />that it is something that he will be visiting with the Board about, because <br />he felt that the PEDC may have to participate in some degree to make this <br />happen. Mr. Vest discussed the building with the Board. He said this <br />company is a sister company with Flex-O-Lite and they would take the <br />Flex-O-Lite product and use it in a further manufacturing process. Mr. <br />Vest advised that this company would start with one shift of 15 people and <br />eventually go to three shifts. <br />There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. <br />MICHAEL RHODES, PRESIDENT <br />ATTEST: <br />MATTIE CUNNINGHAM <br />City Clerk <br />
