SPACEX LAND FIGHT! TEXAS BEACH ACCESS IN THE SPOTLIGHT
State parkland discussions near Boca Chica raise questions about public access.

The Texas Tribune reviewed a draft Texas Parks and Wildlife agenda involving possible transfer of control of about 1,300 acres in Cameron County near SpaceX operations. A draft agenda is not a final approved transfer. The potential implications for beach access and conservation warrant close public attention.
Why it matters: This developing story has implications for Texans and the nation. Facts may change as new reporting emerges.
And one more thing… If Washington had a weather forecast, it would probably call for a 100 percent chance of political thunder.
