ABOUT THE WEST TEXAS SPACEPORT
El Paso County is forming a spaceport development corporation to further synergize the aerospace research, manufacturing and space flight activity that is fast becoming an economic hallmark of west Texas. The spaceport has the potential to promote economic opportunities for new business enterprises, educational training or job training related to its activities.
The spaceport and its activity complement the development of a regional aerospace and defense manufacturing district in El Paso that is being developed with help from the recently awarded $40 million EDA Build Back Better Regional Challenge Grant and local matching funds provided by El Paso County and the City of El Paso.
