Cedar Park<\/a>\u00a0officials are considering a $2 million grant and tax rebates for a concrete and building materials manufacturer aiming to relocate its headquarters and create nearly 170 jobs over the next decade.<\/p>\n

Texas Materials<\/a> is seeking incentives from the city\u2019s economic development corporation to build a new 50,000-square-foot headquarters. In return, the company has pledged to create 169 permanent jobs over the next decade, including 142 within the first three years, according to city records outlining the agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The City Council is expected to decide on the proposal at its June 25 meeting.<\/p>\n

The move could be the latest example of companies choosing Cedar Park for expansion. Cedar Park recently approved similar agreements with defense startup Aeon Industrial<\/a> in May and Creative 3D Technologies Inc. late last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur employees are excited about it,\u201d said Jimmy Ball, the director of land use at Texas Materials said during a June 15 economic development corporation meeting. \u201cIt allows new space for us as we grow to retain our talent and bring them to a new area like Cedar Park\u2026 and you have the resources.\u201d<\/p>\n

The agreement includes an extension option after the initial 10-year term.<\/p>\n

Although Ball told the advisory board he was unsure what future growth would look like for the company, he said he hopes Texas Materials remains in the area beyond the agreement period. Calling the proposed site U.S. Highway 183 \u201cstrategic,\u201d Ball said consolidating operations there could encourage more employees to live in Cedar Park.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The economic development corporation board approved the agreement unanimously, but the City Council must give final approval.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a few (employees) that will probably start thinking \u2018where do I want to be in the next 10 to 20 years? ‘\u201d Ball said. \u201cYou can breathe up here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Texas Materials did not respond to repeated requests for comment.<\/p>\n

Texas Materials operates its main office in Cedar Park and employs about 80 workers there. The company says it has seven additional offices and dozens of plants along the Interstate 35 corridor. Texas Materials supplies materials for large-scale clients, including the Texas Department of Transportation and local governments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Its parent company, CRH Americas<\/a>, acquired Dallas-based Arcosa, which specializes in \u201cinfrastructure related products and solutions,\u201d for $8.5 billion on June 22.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo have (Texas Materials) corporate headquarters here in Cedar Park, all that activity\u2026 We certainly notice it here in the city,\u201d Scott Smith, assistance director of economic development told the advisory board. \u201cWe\u2019re excited that when looking for their future home of the corporate headquarters that we got the first call.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cedar Park\u00a0officials are considering a $2 million grant and tax rebates for a concrete and building materials manufacturer…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":348287,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133],"class_list":["post-348286","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348286","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348286"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348286\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/348287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
