River Bend to restart with refinancing and new phase plan
Floresville city council approves waiving past defaults for the River Bend project and reestablishing Reinvestment Zone One to enable a $14 million loan from First National of America. The refinancing will finish road and Lift Station repairs, build a golf clubhouse, and launch two new phases with homes ranging from about 95 000 to 250 000 dollars. The plan promises city credit free improvements totaling 6.5 million dollars and aims to complete the golf course by year end while marketing River Bend to attract outside builders and sell nearly 900 lots.
