The Harris County Board of Commissioners voted to approve a formal Harris County Airport land‑lease review process during its Dec. 2 meeting, a board member said. The airport committee recommended the process to ensure consistent procedures for reviewing and evaluating ground lease proposals, and the board adopted the recommendation after a motion and second.

Supporters said a written process will create consistent expectations for future applicants and staff. "The airport committee is recommending that the board consider approving the Harris County Airport land lease process so that consistent procedures are established for any further proposals," the chair said during the meeting. The motion to adopt the process was seconded and the chair announced, "Motion carries."

The county manager noted no additional immediate obligations tied to the adoption and offered to answer questions from commissioners. The action was procedural and no public comment was recorded on the airport land‑lease item. The board took the vote early in the meeting and moved on to other business, including a county manager report and a public hearing on a rezoning request.
