Houston mayor asks for calm in face of mill closure
“We’ve been through this before and we’re going to work through this again.”
“We’ve had practice at this. We’ve had the college pull out. We’ve had people leave, but we’ve surprised everyone and we can do it again,” said Brienen. “People are still processing the news. They’ll be making their own decisions. But what I want people to know that they will have the recreation and other services of the District,” he said.
He also remembers asking the province for several million dollars to stabilize the District’s finances when 2014 mill closure took place.
