City vote moves Ramen plant deal forward
By Vicki Vaughan - Express-NewsThe City Council approved an ordinance Thursday in which it agreed not to annex, for a five-year period, a $325 million food manufacturing plant that is planned for Southwest Bexar County.
The council's vote was unanimous and was made without discussion. District 4 councilman Rey Saldaña was absent.
Officials with Japan-based Maruchan Inc., which plans to build a Ramen noodle plant outside city limits, have said the plant would employ as many as 600 workers.
