Zoning Surrounding Laughlin Air Force Base Passes House & Senate Committees

Today the Senate Veteran Affairs & Military Installations Committee reported SB 2439 by Uresti favorably as substituted.

TLC registered against SB 2439 on Wednesday, April 8th and testified against HB 2056 by Gallego, SB 2439's companion in the Senate, on Wednesday, March 25th. On April 22nd, the House Defense and Veterans' Affairs Committee reported HB 2056 favorably as substituted.

These bills would create a Joint Airport Zoning Board to regulate the use of private land surrounding Laughlin Air Force Base in Del Rio. Noncompliance would be considered a misdemeanor punishable by fines of up to $1,000 per day.
