Upon his arrival in Ingleside Jim stated, “I am pleased to be in the City of Ingleside during a unique era for the City. The City is poised for a major community change when the Naval Station Ingleside property reverts back to the Port of Corpus Christi and becomes a new economic development opportunity for the City. The City also has a significant Planned Unit Development, Live Oak Preserve, underway which will include 2300 living units, a Bobby Weed Golf Course, Towne Center and Wellness Center. These opportunities and the strong sense of family atmosphere make Ingleside, Texas an exciting place to be."
