Odessa's Construction Market Faces Contraction Pressure
Builders say there are too many contractors chasing too few jobs and expect supply and demand to rebalance. Some bankruptcies may occur as the market adjusts. Odessa Ready Mix owner John Cunningham cautions that monthly figures mislead about the contraction. He notes oil prices influence the outlook and that the situation defies short-term trends.
City construction permits surge in 1986 year to date
Cunningham notes total approved projects through April reach 19.74 million, surpassing 1985's 15.02 million. Major drivers include a 7.2 million water treatment plant expansion at 811 W 42nd St and a 2.73 million post office project north of Permian Mall. He says there are no small jobs to fill gaps.
