I work in the construction industry in central Texas and it is notably more expensive to do work in San Antonio. We spend a lot more in labor because of all the rediculous regulations the city has for construction sites. It is also extremely difficult to get the supplies we need. We usually have to go out of our way to Austin from Horseshoe Bay to pick up what we need and then bring it to San Antonio. Not sure that explains the high price tag for ya'lls facility, but that's my experience with doing construction there.
