Private company to bring more business to Coulter Airfield

Coulter Airfield is growing.

The Bryan City Council has approved a lease contract with a private company that plans to build a new hangar at the small airport.

This addition through Schieffer Development will bring a total of three aircraft to Coulter, continuing the city's plan to use the airfield to make money.

Schieffer will pay just more than $2,700 per year to lease 2/3 of an acre.

The city says there will not be any upfront costs to Bryan taxpayers.
