Southwest Houston residents nearly filled the Westbury High School auditorium July 29 to voice near-unanimous concern, if not downright opposition, to a temporary concrete batch plant proposed near the Willow Waterhole Greenspace.
Southern Crushed Concrete, LCC, plans to operate the plant at its property at 5001 Gasmer Dr. (between two large portions of the greenspace) for 180 days to mix concrete for three nearby bridge projects on the Union Pacific railroad, according to company manager Jim Miller.
