"They met all the requirements. They held the election, they approved it, and now this," Cameron County Precinct 3 Commissioner David Garza said during Tuesday's county commissioners' meeting. "At the end of the day, this nothing more than an extension of those statues of requirement for a successful election that was held."

Now that approval has been given, Starbase city leaders will be able to create a tax base, city ordinances and will have to adopt a city code.
