Terrell County just voted to move forward with a lease to Fisher Sand & Gravel for 20 acres inside the county airport property.

At today’s Commissioners Court meeting, officials declined to hear an alternative proposal with a maximum potential value of $3.8 MILLION over 20 years.

That figure is a potential value, not guaranteed revenue. But shouldn’t commissioners hear the full proposal before deciding the future of airport land?

This decision could shape the airport—and tourism and outdoor recreation across Big Bend—for years to come. What do you think Terrell County should do next?

BIG BEND UPDATE | 9.23.26 🏜️
Three major developments in the ongoing effort to protect Big Bend and the surrounding communities:
1️⃣ JEFF DAVIS COUNTY: Commissioners tabled Barnard Construction’s special-use road permit request.
2️⃣ TERRELL COUNTY: Officials are considering leasing part of the Terrell County Airport to Fisher Sand & Gravel for a construction staging area and temporary worker housing, commonly called a “man camp.”
3️⃣ BIG BEND 1: Reporters documenting border barrier construction say a private citizen, Steven Rountree, who claimed to work for Barnard Construction, blocked the road and prevented them from leaving for hours. Serious questions remain about what authority, if any, he had to restrict their movement

Big Bend’s future, public access, local communities and press freedom remain at the center of these developments.

Did you know Big Bend is home to 22 documented species of bats, including the endangered Mexican Long-Nosed Bat?

Birds aren't the only ones on the move this fall… Some bats migrate too! 🦇

Each September, species like the hoary bat, silver-haired bat, and eastern red bat take flight, heading south to warmer climates in the U.S. and Mexico, where insects are still active. They follow natural routes like tree lines, rivers, and coastlines, navigating the night just like birds.

As bats begin their journey this fall, remember: Lights out for the birds… AND the bats. Visit https://bit.ly/4sz9Zwt to learn more. ✨
