Carrizo Springs, Texas — According to state and local development sources, Dimmit County plans to invest $10,000,000.00 to build out 28,320 square feet of new space in Carrizo Springs. The company plans to occupy the new space at Industrial Blvd Next door to Rodeo Arena in Carrizo Springs, on or about August 1, 2025. According to the company website Dimmit County, which was established in 1858, was named after a former Pennsylvanian adventurer, Philip Dimmitt, who moved to Texas prior to the Texas Revolution. He was a captain during the war and continually fought for Texas independence. Dimmitt never received any credit for what he had so dearly fought for, so someone finally thought to recognize his service by naming a new county after him. However, nobody could remember how to spell his name correctly so they dropped a t and spelled it Dimmit. Although it is an area with few inhabitants, Carrizo Springs and the surrounding area have several historic landmarks. El Camino Real, or the Old San Antonio Road, is the only highway in Texas to be created by an act of the Legislature. El Camino Real as it pertains to Texas went from the Rio Grande (Guerrero Coah) through Texas to Natchitoches, Louisiana, winding across the southern part of Dimmit County. The original First Baptist Church of Carrizo Springs was built in the heart of the community, and still stands today adjacent to a more modern parish. Although it is unused, it still represents a significant historical value to the community.
