From the meeting
The board agenda scheduled authorization for the Executive Director to negotiate and enter into a ground lease with Sowela Technical Community College for construction of the flight school. This is a project-enabling land deal tied to a future build, not a finished award on the page. The lease terms and construction scope matter because they shape the follow-on planning, design, and build opportunities.
