DETROIT -- Toyota Motor
Corp. is tapping the brakes on production of big pickups and
sport-utility vehicles in its Texas and Indiana plants as part of a
response to slowing demand for those types of trucks in the U.S. market.
As a first step, the Japanese company over the past
several weeks has cut the pace of production of full-size Tundra pickup
trucks and Sequoia SUVs at the Texas and Indiana plants, Toyota
spokesman Mike Goss said Thursday. He declined to elaborate on the
reduction in output. The move stems from increasingly sluggish demand
for those vehicles in the face of record gasoline prices, among other
reasons.

San Antonio Business Journal - by Tricia Lynn Silva A multimillion-dollar revitalization project in North Central San Antonio has attracted another noted name. Aloft, an edgy, urban hotel concept, is making its way to the Park North project. The announcement of Aloft was made Thursday during a real estate symposium sponsored by the San Antonio chapter of Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW). Park North is located off of Loop 410, between Blanco Road and San Pedro Avenue. The project -- which could ultimately span some 1 million square feet -- is being developed on the site of the former Central Park Mall. |

CPS Energy is seeking a rate increase on customers' electric and gas bills in order to help foot the bill on several major power plant projects. CPS Energy officials say the proposed rate increases are necessary to keep pace with San Antonio's energy needs. If adopted by the utility's board of trustees and ultimately City Council, monthly utility bills would go up nearly 5 percent. This translates to an additional $6 or $7 per month on a typical residential customer's bill. Source: http://austin.bizjournals.com/austin/othercities/sanantonio/stories/2008/03/03/daily32.html |
