LEVELLAND, TEXAS — The City of Levelland has broken ground for the construction of a new $8.6 million industrial rail park. The 300-acre development will include 18 lots ranging in size from 2 to 20 acres. All lots will have direct access to the rail line. Four tenants have already expressed interest in the park, including Project Gorilla, Independent Electric, Eco Blue and Tex-Rail Commodities. Completion is scheduled for 2010. The project is being funded by $3.3 million in federal stimulus funds, $1.5 million from the Levelland Economic Development Corp. and $3.8 million in local bonds.
