Keep Tyler County Clean & Beautiful!
The plan by East Texas Packing to build a slaughterhouse on the very edge of our city (.8 miles from city limit sign) is moving forward with haste, and without adequate investigation into the long-term repercussions. The location chosen for a slaughterhouse of this size is especially heartless, putting at risk the livelihoods and health of our families who live in direct proximity.
Environmental Impact
The dense thicket bordering Village Creek holds a remarkably wide variety of plant life, much of which are rare or endangered and dependent on over-bank flows from Turkey Creek.
Economic Impact
What are the economic impacts of a slaughterhouse located outside of the city limits, but within the city utility district?
