BISD board members Monday night unanimously approved submitting a request to the state comptroller's office to limit the property value increase.
FDB’s local chief operating officer Gerry Farrell says the project, to expand production of vaccines and gene therapies, would create 150 technical jobs with an average annual salary of $80,000 dollars.

Also speaking on behalf of what was nicknamed "Operation Flag Ship" was the president of the Brazos Valley Economic Development Corporation (BVEDC), Matt Prochaska, and Bryan ISD assistant superintendent Kevin Beesaw.
