Background and Discussion:
Harris County has purchased the property at 8319 Thora Ln in Hangar M-31 at Hooks Airport for the benefit of the Sheriff's Office (HCSO). The Sheriff's Office operates its Air Operations Section (AOS) and Tactical Response Section (TRS) from M-31. AOS and TRS operate 5 aircraft, 10 tactical vehicles, and 41 FTEs. M-31 has space for an additional aircraft and the surrounding land has space to expand the hangar. This request is to start paying the monthly utilities for the hangar.

Expected Impact:
Will provide additional space for the Sheriff's Office operations.





Alternative Options:
No alternative options. Utilities must be paid for the building to function for the Sheriff's Office.
