Hang in there a little longer!   It seems that construction at Main Street and IH 35 has been going on forever.   Not really, but things are nearing completion.  I spoke with the City of Buda Engineering Department today and they believe work should be wrapped up within a month or so.  Once completed, traffic in this area should flow much more smoothly and the entrance into the HEB shopping center will be much safer.   Thanks for your patience. 

You’ve probably noticed that Tractor Supply Company is “going vertical” on the east side on IH 35 in the “Shops at Sunfield” development.  I’m pleased to let you know that “Microtel” has submitted plans to the City of Buda and will be moving forward with the construction of their facility behind Cabela’s at the corner of Cabela’s Drive and Old San Antonio Road.   This will be Buda’s fifth hotel property. 

The Buda Area Chamber of Commerce will be hosting their annual awards banquet at Texas Disposal Company’s Ranch Facility on Saturday, February 18th.  Call the Chamber at 512-295-9999 for more information and to purchase your tickets.  This year’s banquet will be bitter-sweet as the Chamber recognizes all the award winners but also says goodbye to Chamber President Dick Schneider.   Dick has announced his retirement following this year’s event.  Mr. Terry Capps, a former Citizen of the Year award winner, has been selected by the Buda Chamber Board to fill the big shoes left by Dick’s departure.  Here’s wishing them both well as they move in new directions.  

The Greater San Marcos Economic Development Partnership has completed its first full year of operation.  Wow, time does fly.   This group was born out of a need to better represent the economic needs in San Marcos.  It then grew to include others in Hays and Caldwell Counties.   Buda EDC is honored to be a financial supporter of the Partnership and to have a seat on the Board of Directors.   As part of our work with the Partnership, we will join forces with Kyle and Dripping Springs for a property tour later this year.  This joint effort will allow invited guests to take a bus tour of all three communities to see firsthand the sites and buildings that are available for development.   Stay tuned for more information. 

As a follow up from our last update, “Xceligent” is up and running.  This is the new Buda EDC system for our “Available Properties” tab on the web site.   This system is much more comprehensive than before.  If you are looking for available acreage, a building for lease or sale, check it out. 

Remember, Buda EDC is your partner in economic development.  Call, email or visit us in person in downtown Buda.  While you’re here, have lunch and stay a while.
