Both the state budget that includes the money for this (HB 1) and the enabling bill to create the commission and research fund (HB 3447) have been passed by the legislature. The budget is being examined by the comptroller and HB 3447 has been sent to Governor Abbott's desk. He was an early endorser of this plan so it should be a foregone conclusion that he'll sign them both/allow them to become law. We can hopefully look forward to planning and construction to commence on this massive facility in the next two years!

Given that the airport has been around for 100+ years, and the non-military part has been owned by the city for about 40, I'd hope so by this point.
