(Seguin) – The city of Seguin has officially broken ground on the largest single capital project ever.

It has dealt with that odor, with that eyesore for a long, long time and that doesn’t need to happen. Those folks don’t need to be doing that and our town doesn’t need to be doing that. So, when that is removed, there will be something incredible there. I’m not sure what it will be. It could be pie in the sky but there will be something incredible there and everything will be moved outside of town as we know it today and it will take us to 2070,” said Dodgen.

“It is the costliest project that we’ve ever done and the largest that we’ve ever undertaken but we need it as part of our growth and as Seguin changes and becomes better. That’s very large and so what happened was, we looked at if we expanded this one and expanded Walnut Creek where it was, we were like only $57 million different and I know millions sound like a lot but to get this and to be out here plus decommission that one, it was worth that amount of money so that was very important to us.
