Court authorizes airport sign design, LEORP application and a 20‑year FAA storage lease

Gregg County Commissioners Court · July 29, 2026

Summary

Gregg County approved reorganization of airport accounting to design a new entrance sign, authorized applying for TSA LEORP law-enforcement reimbursement (time-limited application) and renewed a 20‑year FAA storage building lease at East Texas Regional Airport.

The Gregg County Commissioners Court approved several items for East Texas Regional Airport: a budget/accounting reorganization to allow design work on an airport entrance sign, authorization for the county judge to execute documents to apply for the TSA Law Enforcement Officer Reimbursement Program (LEORP), and renewal of a 20‑year FAA land‑site storage building lease.

Airport staff explained the LEORP application window was short and that the county had applied to secure potential reimbursements; no award figures were available at the time of the meeting. On the FAA lease, staff said last year’s tower lease had been renewed and this item covers a storage lease renewal for a multi-year term. "So it's just an application that gave us about 21 days to apply for it," airport staff said about the LEORP opportunity. Motions for all items were made and passed during the meeting.
