Abilene Mayor Cannot Support Selling Water to Tenaska

DateWednesday, June 30, 2010 at 9:59AM

In what (in my opinion) is a surprising announcement, Abilene Mayor, Norm Archibald, announced his opposition to the City of Abilene selling water to the Tenaska Trailblazer plant planned for near Sweetwater.

I don't know what this will mean to the Abilene City Council's actions scheduled for later this year, but it certainly adds a new wrinkle to the story. A public hearing is scheduled for July 29, 2010, and anyone interested in the outcome should consider attending.

You can also view Mayor Archibald's interview with KRBC and the KTAB live report of Mayor Archibald's announcement here.
