"We're excited to see the $82 million that's earmarked for the South Side," Chamber president and CEO Al Arreola said. "It's a lot of necessary investments that our aging infrastructure is in need of. We're looking forward to continued growth from the regional centers of Port San Antonio, Brooks City Base and Texas A&M San Antonio."
"Keeping that buzz going is what the South Side deserves," Brooks City Base president and CEO Leo Gomez said. "It's actually what the whole city deserves, and the South Side is proud to be a part (of it) and really looking forward and building toward a good future."
