This morning, the Leon County Judge shared an email he received from the CEO of Belltown Power regarding the proposed Kahla Project.
Summary of the Email
In the message, Belltown Power acknowledges that residents have raised questions and concerns about the Kahla Project. However, the email does not provide new technical details, commitments, timelines, or specific data.
Instead, Belltown states that:
- The project remains in an evaluation and study phase
- Issues raised by the community — including water use, emergency response readiness, project phasing, and fiscal impacts — are still being analyzed
- The company does not intend to provide information at this time, citing a desire to avoid speculation or incomplete answers
- Additional details may be shared at some unspecified point in the future
While the email references future engagement, it offers no concrete information that allows residents or local officials to meaningfully evaluate the project today.
Context
This communication follows recent confirmation that the Kahla Project has entered state-level review, including a formal review process by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD).
