OFFICIAL GCCRD ANNOUNCEMENT | OCTOBER 28, 2026
Grimes County Residents Are Fighting for Answers.
On October 27, 2026, Grimes County Citizens for Responsible Development electronically submitted a petition in the ongoing SpaceX public information lawsuit, seeking access to records concerning the SpaceX/TeraFab development agreements and the decisions leading to their approval.
For months, residents have sought answers about how a 22,429-acre reinvestment zone and significant economic development incentives were approved, while continuing to request meaningful public engagement.
This is not about stopping progress. It is about protecting the public's right to know how its government conducts the public's business.
The future of the United States of America should not happen TO its people.
It should be built WITH its people.
WE THE PEOPLE.

Grimes County is home to families, farms, ranches, wildlife, and a rural heritage that generations of residents care deeply about protecting.
As discussions about large-scale industrial projects emerge, many residents are asking important questions about how these developments could affect our county in the long term.
Grimes County Citizens for Responsible Development was created to help our community stay informed, share reliable information, and ensure that residents have a meaningful voice in decisions that could shape the future of our county.
We support responsible growth and economic opportunity, but projects of significant scale should be approached with transparency, careful planning, and open communication with the community.
This may be the most important page on our website.
Our blog and video series are where we break down what is really happening in Grimes County (and around our entire country), why these projects are coming here, and what it could mean for our land, water, power, homes, and future.
Start here, get informed, and help us share what we are uncovering.

Community participation is essential to ensure transparency and responsible planning.
