STARBASE, Texas — A state construction filing identifies a proposed city hall and police-station project in Starbase with an estimated cost of $12 million.
The filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation lists SpaceX as the owner and describes an approximately 11,500-square-foot civic building at 1 Rocket Road. Plans described in the filing include city hall functions, a police station, limited detention rooms and dispatch space.
The filing lists a projected start date of Dec. 1 and a projected completion date of Dec. 31, 2027. Those dates and the cost estimate are planning information reported to the state and may change as design, contracting and construction proceed.
Starbase incorporated as a city earlier this year, creating the need for municipal facilities and services as the community develops alongside SpaceX’s launch and production operations near Boca Chica.
