Cameron County has partnered with Brownsville to enhance housing infrastructure on the city's north side. County commissioners approved joining the city's reinvestment zone, which spans approximately 1,000 acres north of I-169, between Old Alice and Paredes Line Road. This initiative aims to accommodate the influx of workers from projects like SpaceX and LNG developments. Economic Development Director Ramiro Aleman emphasized the importance of collaboration between the county and municipalities to address housing needs. The county will contribute 50% of the maintenance and operations tax increment for 25 years, with the first implementation year set for 2027.
