2017 Annual Report

When Midland was founded
in 1881 as the Texas and
Pacific Railroad’s halfway
point between Fort Worth
and El Paso, it’s unlikely
that anyone had the vision that the city
would one day be the nexus of the nation’s
oil production, but Midland has become an
economic powerhouse. As Chairman of the
Midland Development Corporation, I want to
see Midland use its momentum to overcome
the challenges facing it, but I am aware that
the MDC cannot accomplish this goal alone.
That is why our organizational objective is to
build strong partnerships across the community, in order to
combine separate strengths into a bold force to lift Midland to
its full potential.
