Taylor County Action Network

Taylor County Action Network formed informally in 2025 to monitor the Stargate campus development north of Abilene. The network attends Taylor County Commissioners Court meetings, documents permit filings and tax-abatement terms, and tracks Hubbard Creek reservoir draw data. It represents the first organized civic voice for ratepayer and landowner interests in the Stargate corridor.

Taylor County Action Network emerged from a loose coalition of county residents who began attending commissioners court sessions after the 85 percent ten-year tax abatement for the Stargate campus cleared without a public hearing. The network coordinates testimony on permit applications and maintains a public-records archive of agency actions across the Stargate build-out.
