Grimes County commissioners do not make a decision whether to offer SpaceX economic incentives for their proposed facility at Gibbons Creek lake. After a 90 minute executive session at the end of Tuesday’s special meeting (June 2), county judge Joe Fauth said they directed their county attorney to continue negotiations, that there is no agreement, then he adjourned the meeting. Before going into executive session, the four commissioners who were present listened to about 30 minutes of comments from public speakers. That was followed by Fauth thanking the speakers, adding “We do listen to what you have to say, whether that sinks in or not, we do hear what you say and we take it to heart.” Precinct two commissioner David Tullos was absent from Tuesday’s meeting.

In February, the Bryan city council approved grant funding to help pay the cost of a mural that is a project of the Bryan/College Station sister cities organization. The dedication of the mural, on the west side of the Clara B. Mounce library that faces the railroad tracks, is Wednesday (June 3) at 5:30. The organization’s board secretary, Chuck Martinez, says among those attending the program includes representatives of all four sister cities. That includes the mayor of Salamanca Mexico and officials from the U.S. consulates representing Bastogne Belgium, Greifswald Germany, and Torun Poland. The mural’s artist comes from the sister city in Germany. Martinez says the artist’s concept uses animals representing Bryan and each sister city. The mural also incorporates phrases representing each city…the American phrase Learn Together, the Spanish phrase for curiosity and connection, the French phrase representing Belgium for inspire each other, the German phrase for discovering together, and the Polish phrase for exploring new paths. A sister cities news release says the mural “is a visual symbol for citizen diplomacy, celebrating Bryan-College Station’s international friendships and promoting peace through mutual respect, understanding, and cooperation — one individual, one community at a time.” Additional funding for the mural comes from a state grant and community corporate sponsors.
