HARLINGEN — A proposed recycling center will not process materials at the site.
City commissioners tomorrow will consider Nicole Ortiz’s request for a specific use permit to open the center at 1318 N. Commerce St.
The city’s Planning and Zoning commission approved the request on conditions including the erection of a fence which would surround the 3.4-acre site located in an zoned for light-industrial use.
Ortiz plans to purchase scrap metal at the site, where the material would be loaded for transportation, according to her application.
Raw material would be transported to a site in Donna, where it would be processed, Rodrigo Davila, director of the city’s planning department, said yesterday.
