Proposed HEB Grocery Store: Public Hearing on Sept. 7

The City of Houston's Housing and Community Development Department (HCDD) Is hosting a public hearing on September 7, 2016 to engage the community and discuss the acquisition of land located at the corner of Highway 288 and MacGregor in City Council District D for the development of an HEB grocery store.

This hearing is part of HUD's eight-step environmental process for a potential development in a flood plain. This area is considered a food desert: an urban area in which it is difficult to buy affordable or good-quality fresh food.

HEB proposes to develop a 72,000-square-foot grocery store. The construction costs of $20 million will be funded by HEB and its investors.

PUBLIC HEARING

Wednesday, September 7, 2016 from 6-8 p.m.
