May's regular meeting of the Bryan city council including four items involving economic development.

One was creating a reinvestment zone on the west side RELLIS campus that would allow property tax breaks. A statement from A&M system chancellor John Sharp that was read by mayor Bobby Gutierrez says the 288 acre reinvestment zone could be the biggest economic development project since the creation of Texas A&M university.

A third item also benefitting the CertainTeed facility is finalizing a contract to extend a waterline along Mumford Road. 

Public works director Jayson Barfknecht said the extension will eventually create a loop serving customers in the Texas Triangle Park that includes Axis Pipe and Tube and Kristen Distributing. 

The council approved managing the $1.7 million dollar project that will be paid by the city-county economic development foundation (EDF).
